By being too open in trying to relay to others, the bondage is smashed broken, and we become triumphant laughing at our own mistakes and being in mirth that we are released from what blocks our friendly ties with others. Sometimes we need to practice what we think and write as we are restored to health. Though we so desire to experience the pain that Jesus endured, with our hearts being pricked, we also need to protect others from being stained by our affliction.

Other people don’t desire to intimidate us for they only want us to unseal the voice that pursues a healthy exchange of pleasantries for us to lighten our mood. They don’t really mean to offend us with their jokes. They just want that we should include them to what runs in our head with each party involved being happily reciprocated by the other’s presence.

Our neighbors are just like us. If we can afford to laugh in the presence of other friends, these youth have the right too to hear laughter from us, they being easily captured by fun than the mature ones. We cannot be too serious in their presence to consider that the time of winning them had been long overdue.

Jesus too had craved to be understood though he was perfectly healthy. He tried his best to explain to Philip his nature that he was in the Father and that the Father is in him. To make it clear, I would say that though Jesus has the nature of the Father, he also was perfectly human. He did eat, felt thirst, slept on the boat, perspired, sensed hunger, did pray, was injured, and died on the cross.

With the spirit of the Father being apparent in him (Isaiah 11:2), he transformed the water in the jars into the sweetest wine; he cured the sick, made whole the lame, caused the mute to sing, fashioned the blind to have sight, healed the broken-hearted, raised the dead, was transfigured in the mountain, walked in the water, forgave sins, and ascended into heaven.

Similarly, we all experience resurrection from our wounded souls and the brokenness of our hearts. We too are subjected into different purposes with the nature of the Trinity apparent in our homes, to mention were the role of the father, the task of the mother, and portrayal of the children. This even extends to the characterization of our relatives and friends.

We should always look at others as the ones who are attempting to help us even with us being disconsolate. They act as pastors too and priests who are endeavoring to mitigate us by using the word, this even actualized as the two-edged-sword cutting through our souls and healing it afterwards. By the word of God growing in us, we are purified of our sins, with God manifesting apparently even in our visions that have sharpened day by day.

We should not blame God as the one who have caused our anguish. Day by day, we will see that He manifests perfectly in our midst even in times of laughter and fun. By being sentimental about the issue in our life, we pass the pain to others. Why then should we hurt them too or cause the least bit to be in pain in the same way? This would only make them feel irritable towards us.

This is far from the nature that Jesus bears in his heart. He transcended from mere human emotions. But even with his attempt, he was found crying before the tomb of Lazarus, whom he loved most, which indicate that by feeling love and been into tears, it was shown that he was perfectly human. It is the season for us not to be reduced to being lachrymose but for us to bring love and consider others as our kin by blood with which we can enjoy many happy moments.

Though we know we can be happy, we sometimes avoid occurrences that would give us jubilation by still carrying the burden of other’s sin on our shoulders. Though we may not feel sinning, we incite others around us to sin. In the turn of events, we become irritants to their eyes; though we can’t leave them for it is our belief that we can continually learn from them. We need those hurtful comments too, if we desire to grow and advance to their level.

Moreover, we should live our own existence, and not that we occupy others’ lives. If we become lost in their sight, we continually evade from similar situations that follow us all through. We’re not deranged too to cut our wrist just to get the point across. As long as there are others who still believe in us and are concerned of our welfare though we are in want of love, then the sparkle in us must go on.

Life is an existence of love and fun, and not of remorse and bitterness. As long as they can’t see progress in us or haven’t heard from us vocally as we are hesitant too being timid, we can’t avoid being criticized. We have to wait for the perfect time, the very moment meant for both of us. Meanwhile, life must go on even with our priorities, for God is just on our side.

You can give without loving, but you can’t love without giving. Jesus clearly pointed out, “If you love me, obey my commandments.” One of the commandments is, “Give and you shall be given back in return.” Obedience is better than sacrifice. In Isaiah 1:19, it says, “ If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land.

If you obey and serve the Lord, you will spend your days in prosperity. Ezra has devoted himself to the study about God. It will do well for us if we allow ourselves to be influenced by the work that God placed in his church in the last days. Be able to hear gospel songs frequently. If we look closely to what God is doing, he is encouraging local churches to be partners in trying to write about him, and that we should all join forces together.

Devotion to his work in this new age should start from within us as we ask individuals to help us with the analysis on trying to understand the nature of God and of his work. We ought to be teachers, as we are reminded of this by St. Paul. We should try to affect many to grow in knowledge, and more likely be molded in character. God’s word should sharpen the ability of those that benefit from our wisdom being yielded to become leaders that should help in church activities.

God has given everyone the capability to lead. A growing leader devotes him to the study of the word, which will result to the growth in knowledge and understanding. It means that he having an ardent, intense, passionate, zealous search is able to relay the essence to the implications of what wonder God’s word can do.

Even in the New Testament, people are really serious in the search for God’s word. In Acts 18:24, it was relayed that a certain Jew named Apollos, an eloquent man who came to Ephesus manifested a thorough knowledge of the scriptures. He was apprehended as one being instructed in the ways of the Lord for he speaks in great fervor, though he only knew of the baptism of John in contrast to what the disciples knew.

If we see one having this interest, we should teach him more, and equip him more for him to have more space to learn and work on God’s word. We should continue the study in searching the word of God, as we desire to see the true picture of God’s word. We should prepare the way of the one who is to come and ask from among us who are his subjects. Jesus came not to baptize with water but with fire, that we may have the full knowledge through the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit in His indwelling to us as likened to that in the Pentecost.

In Acts 19:4, John as relayed by Paul, baptizes in the baptism of repentance. With them hearing the word, they were baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. The baptism of John was the preparation in the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Thereafter, the disciples were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 19:5).

Apollos was known to be the person of eloquence. We have to enhance our own knowledge or learning of the word of God, and dig on for a deeper understanding of the truth focusing ourselves to the study and observance of the wonders God’s word can do. Ezra has deep affection in the ministry of the word. If we look back, there are plenty of people that followed Jesus, and have been freed from the slavery of sin because of his accuracy and wisdom in trying to explain the insights he derived from the Father.

Everyone has this responsibility to search for the truth for us to be able to have the kind of knowledge regarding God’s word, and become a growing leader devoting ourselves to the study of the scriptures. As we do this, we become inclined in dedicating ourselves to the observance of the word. We ought to love God’s word and statures. We should reflect in our buoyancy the eagerness to know the truth about the word and cogitate in our being the kind of love God has for his dear ones. You have to love to see God’s statures fulfilled in you.

In our life, each of us has the fruit of the Spirit. As we start to grow, we are drawn to yearn for a deeper wisdom. We should grow in peace and self-control, and start to desire that God’s word be manifested in our lives with us obtaining righteousness and purity. Spiritual gifts will be abundant in the learning of God’s word as this value from the scriptures becomes lucid in our existence.

We have to grow not only in our desire for things of God; not only in knowledge, but in our observance of what life we ought to abide. Devoting us to teaching about the word results to skill and ability. Ezra is not a pastor or a priest but he devoted himself to the study and observance of the law. King David on the other hand, being a devoted servant of the Lord became established, mighty, was feared by his enemies and has a prosperous kingdom.

We ought to have a deeper love of the scriptures and give time in learning about the word and the things that are of God.

In the celebration of the Eucharist, the whole body of Christ unites. With the Bible then in our homes, the word of God impels us to unite the neighborhood. The word of God does not separate us from the Eucharist.

The word must steer us towards the Eucharist where our holy indication of accepting the body and blood of Jesus in the form of a host move us to totally gain Jesus in the Eucharist Tran-signified.We cannot separate the word from the Eucharist for the Mass is indispensable.

The Eucharist constrains us to transform our readings into action. As we initiate Bible-sharing this moves us to actualize our faith by receiving Jesus in the Eucharist. It is for us how to begin a Bible-sharing in our area. This could revitalize the companionship that must be governed by the love of God. It is because of the fondness that Christ became man therefore increasing affection.The Basic Ecclesial Community opening a form of Bible sharing is a new way for the church to spread the word in the neighborhood.

Salvation should dwell in the basic unit of our society, which were our homes where we can be revitalized through a deeper Christian community. Its structure emerges from the families where each home is concerned of what was the basic interest of the community. Hence, the homes become functional as they propose Christ into the neighborhood.

The underlying family is where the word can come into being as Jesus is the Word that became flesh. Basic Ecclesial Community (BEC) is the local incarnation of the one, holy, Catholic and apostolic church. It is in the neighborhood that we progress in our credence having faith in the One God but having three persons.

From a holy gathering, we receive a touch of the Divine. The word Catholic means universal where each of us is linked with the wider Church. The word Apostolic means action, where we are inspired to spread the Good News.

The word takes flesh in BEC, where BEC is the local incarnation of the genuine Church. With the BEC, we can feat being the Church and establish our ministries as it introduces a new way of being a church. Our small cell should bring an unfolding, which will lead into a production of other more cells, starting in our neighborhood.

The Basic Ecclesial Community is the puny cell of the big church, where we all are composed of families. Bible sharing through BEC is the celebration of our faith, which is the extolling of life. As our Bible sharing gives us competency, we discern what God wants us to do. The power to do what God desires is the action of the Holy Spirit.

As the days pass by, we throng coming together to pray and to ponder on the inspiration of the word. In a place of worship, we become active pilgrims as we generate strength from Bible-sharing. However, prayer is not enough, we have to do what God wants us to commence. We have to undergo stages and welcome these to sharpen our way of thinking even improve our theological viewpoint.

We should also have a report sharing that enriches our initiative not much in our preparation but relying on our experience as enhanced by our reading of the word. Through every new encounter with the word, we need to retrospect on our theological output. By right attitude, we are challenged through our gospel lifestyle.

We should look into ourselves to the point of examining how can we improve our attitude towards service to God and concern to our fellowmen. Our relationship should improve our disposition of purifying our lifestyle towards being gospel-oriented. If we are leaders, we should safeguard our commitment.

Discipleship is not an excursion but a commitment. We should love the word for only through this endearment with the scriptures that we can truly love God, harnessing our capacity to ameliorate our spiritual life. As we have the wisdom, we are inspired to grow through the propagation of the word. We need to increase as we ourselves, in a spiritual application, distribute the loaves of bread and share the fish making it enough to feed the spirit of many through Bible-sharing.

To harness our expertise we need to procure Bibles for our homes and faithfully read it and learn from it. By going forth and sharing its message, God impels us to unite the neighborhood. The word of God does not separate us from the Eucharist but likewise lead us toward accepting Jesus in the mass.

We need to have the will to start our mission, living like the disciples true to their faith and with credence being coupled by action. Love is itself God, this rooting in our spirit, as we improve our attitude in restoring friendly ties with others with us concerned of their welfare and salvation.
