TECHONTRAST (a poem)

 

How you have turned this life so social,

The world into one global village,

With access to information on the go,

And work being done from home on screens,

And processes becoming simpler every single day,


How you are praised by everyone,

Investing thousands to millions in you,

Not to be left behind by this global whooze,

Becoming a husband and wife to many,

A teacher to the another,


How you have exposed the young to illicit,

Spoiling millions into immorality,

How you've turned people poor,

And others forced to steal,

How addictive you strike!


How colonialism continues through you,

And spyware everywhere,

How you make men unequal,

Taking away the real we,

Into merely moving robots!

Reflection on Diary No. 913-915 (Divine Mercy)

  Reflection on Diary No. 913-915 (Divine Mercy) Daily Mass for seminarians, for priests and some other devoted Christians can take us into a temptation of taking Mass as a routine, so lightly! Here at seminary, it is a school rule for everyone to attend Mass daily, even back at the parish, it is almost the same, for some of us. We need to reflect about the Holy Mass and ask for God’s grace to always actively take part in Mass and to worthly receive Him in the Holy Communion just as the CCC No. 1415 and the following teach us. We have heard how St. Maria Faustina saw the crucified Jesus, nailed to the cross and in great agony #No.913. Note that this is away from her routine as she testifies and I quote “I thought I would see the little Jesus, as I often do” Dear brothers (and sisters), we all may not become Mystics or at least we may not get the grace but we are called to stay firm in faith and prayer as St. Paul teaches in 1 Corinthians 16:13 and in 1Timothy 2: 8 Do you believe?...

Saintly view of life's challenges.

 Sometimes the challenges we face in life are crosses that may be 'God-sent' and we should bear and carry them with the help of His Grace throughout our lives for His Glory and He surely rewards with a Heavenly throne for those who carry their crosses faithfully without personal deception and a life of sin but striving daily to live Holy lives despite the trials and temptations and seeking for His Mercy when we fall while trusting in His unfailing love and mercy. We should persevere in all the challenges to keep burning that enduring faith.
