Let The Resurrection Witnessing Begin (Acts 10:34,37-43/Ps.118/Col.3:1-4/Jn.20:1-9)

"In those days: Peter opened his mouth and said, You know the word which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after Baptism which John preached: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power and he went about doing good and healing all that were possessed by the devil,  for God was with Him" Acts 10:34,37-38 Today, is the Sunday of the Resurrection and there is joy everywhere, because Jesus is risen and was not held bound by the force of the grave and death. We have been waiting for this day as we practiced our lenten observances and today Joy has taken over the atmosphere because He who was killed and buried has risen as He said He will do. we see that by the power of the resurrection the apostles became witnesses to the events about the life of Christ. They proclaimed His name to all those who were listening to them. This is simply our responsibility as we rejoice and give praise to God for letting His only begotten ...

Proclaim What You Have Witnessed!(Acts 4:13-21, Psalm 118, Mark 16:9-15 )

In the Gospel reading of today, we read the evangelist listing some persons to whom Jesus had  appeared to after his ressurection. We hear Jesus chastise his apostles for not believing even by the testimonies of those who had seen Him. Now in the Gospel reading we hear the two apostles refusing to stop witnessing. They too had experienced the resurrected Christ and his first gift of the Holy Spirit and now have become witnesses themselves.

It is very sad that many times ourlives show that we do not believe Jesus is alive and is watching our every action and thought. We need to brace up and live the new life which we share in he ressurection through baptism....

God Acts Through Anyone who says Yes to Him (Isa.7:10-14;8:10/Ps.40/Heb.10:4-10/Luke 1:26-38)

"And the angel said to her, do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favour with God. And behold you shall conceive in your womb and bear a son and you shall call his name Jesus" Luke 1:30-31 Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord. It is the feast that shows us how the Good News of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ was brought to Mary by the Angel Gabriel and this news turned out to be the greatest news of all time. We also see in the story that our Blessed Mother after receiving the News simply said submitted herself as an instrument to be used by God for the singular purpose of bring salvation to sinful humanity. The prophecy that was made in the old dispensation through Isaiah came to fulfilment in the new testament as we have in the gospel when our Blessed Mother the Virgin Mary said yes to the message of the Angel Gabriel. She accepted that God's will be done in her life and her obedience to God made our Lord Jesus Christ to be b...
