Whom Do You Seek (Acts 2:36-41/Jn.20:11-18)

Image
This was the question that Jesus put to Mary when she came looking for Him at the tomb. She was deeply troubled after the death of Jesus, but because of the love she has for Him, she went to the grave to see the Body of Jesus that was buried in the tomb, but she met the Living Christ who has risen. The story shows us that if we seek Jesus with our whole heart we will surely find Him. Jesus is alive and not dead, therefore if we are going to seek Him it must be with our whole heart and we must seek Him among the living and not among the dead. The truth is that many of us are seeking so many things unreal and that cannot bring any good to us. Most times we seek them to the detriment of our faith and in extreme cases we are lost in the search of that which is anti-Christ. Jesus called Mary and she recognised His voice at once. When we seek Jesus with our whole  heart we will find Him and when we find Him He will call us by name and we will be able to hear his voice and carry o...

Praying The Lord's Prayer (Sirach 48:1-14/Ps.97/Matt.6:7-15)

Prayer is a means and channel of communication between human beings and God. Through prayer we glorify God, ask him for mercy and make our needs known to Him.

The Lord's prayer is the best way we can pray and it is a prayer that is comprehensive and complete. However, when we pray it hurriedly without applying our minds and hearts in what we are praying, then something is wrong and we will be unable to receive the answers to our prayers. The prayer begins with praise of the Father, acknowledging Him to be supreme in heaven and on earth. It asks that God's Kingdom will come and His will be done on earth. If we praise God and we do His will, we shall be li...

In the Name Of Jesus Every knee shall bow (1 John 2:29-3:6/Ps. 98/John 1:29-34)

Image
Today we celebrate the Memorial of the most Holy name of Jesus. When Jesus was born a name was given to Him and His name became the means if salvation to all those who believe in Him. Saint John tells us in gospel that there is no name given us under the face of the earth by which we shall find salvation, except in the name of Jesus. The name of Jesus is a  strong tower and those who run into it are protected John witnessed for Jesus and He was not shamed to point out to others who the lamb of God that takes away  the sins of the world. The name of Jesus is the greatest and we must let it be on our lips daily and if this will be the case, we must stay away from sun and everything that make us fall into sin. The most holy name of Jesus saves, heals, delivers, protects, provides and open doors. We must never take His name for granted or in vain. We must place our trust and hope in His name and His name will speak for us in the most difficult times of our lives. At the n...
