Saint Laurence, Deacon, Martyr John 12:24-26  There's a saying in Filipino, "Kung ano'ng tinanim, siya ring aanihin."  Kung matipid ang pagtatanim, matipid din ang aanihin.  On the other hand, rich sowing means rich reaping. Since we know we're entering into the same venture anyway, why not capitalize on opportunities instead of desiring only for small output? In the Gospel, Jesus capitalizes on a rich harvest.  But it takes the offering of Jesus' own life to cause the salvation not only of a certain number of people, but of the entire human race in all generations. In the Ignatian Spirituality, there's what we call "magis", meaning, more.  "Ad majorem Dei gloriam" (All for the greater glory of God) would be a call to desire for God all the more, to serve Him more, to follow Him more, and to love Him more.  In other words, we simply give to God what he deserves, adoration, love, and service. By doing so, we shall be reapin...

I believe the Lord doesn't ask us for anything less.  Because he has given everything of Himself, let it be upon us to give Him what He deserves - our whole lives. there is a saying that caught my attention of a priest who said, "Magis" taken from the Jesuits' "All for the greater glory of God".  It means more, be more, give more, use more.  "Lubos, buhos, ubos". Let it be the same for us in our devotion, love, and service to our Divine Lord.
