Believe the word of God. Share the word of God.

Believe & Share the Word of God. 

"Jesus said to the crowd: 

“No one who lights a lamp conceals it with a vessel or sets it under a bed; rather, he places it on a lampstand so that those who enter may see the light.

"For there is nothing hidden that will not become visible, and nothing secret that will not be known and come to light. 

"Take care, then, how you hear. To anyone who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he seems to have will be taken away.” (Luke 8: 16 - 18).

The Seed is the word of God. 

Believe in the word of God. 

Share the word of God. 

Practice the word of God. 

"To anyone who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he seems to have will be taken away.” (Luke 8: 18).

In our Baptism, we receive the light of Christ and a variety of supernatural graces. If we show ourselves good managers of this treasure, they grow like a mustard seed. If we neglect these gifts, they shrivel until one day, they die. Look! People do not suddenly stop believing or stop coming to Church. Their faith has been dying slowly long before that final gasp of breath. What are the signs of a dying faith?

#1 Doubts of the truths of faith.

#2 Critical attitude of things of God.

#3 Severe and critical attitude of the Church.

#4 Hostility against sacred Ministers.

#5 Witholding contributions to the Church.

These are just a few. When you notice these signs in family members or friends, you are obligated under the Spiritual Laws of Mercy to:

#1 Instruct the ignorant.

#2 Counsel the doubtful.

Do not forget to apply the universal remedy of prayer. St Monica, mother of St Augustine prayed for St Augustine for many years before his conversion. See what St Augustine turned out to be.

In September, the Church honors the Sorrowful Heart of Mary. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows obtain for us  mercies from her Son Jesus.
