Focus

"Blessed are those who heed the word of God and keep it." (Luke 11:27 - 28) 27th week in ordinary time, year 2 There's a saying "Mind your own business." Though this sounds negative, in the business world, you should be doing this in the first place. To mind one's business means to take care of one's affairs, properly manage it, and see to it that it reaches its proper destination. Our faith all demands that we focus ourselves on doing God's affairs. Right now, the world is a mess because people are doing affairs apart from what God wants. If we devote all attention on doing God's will here on earth, not only do we live eternally, other people will benefit from our goodness.

Learning from the angels

Today is the feast of the guardian angels. Do you know that the reflecting on the angels is tantamount to realizing the presence of God everywhere, in every man and women, and in every situation? These angels guard us, watch over us, pray for us, and lead us to the right path. A secret to a full life is to do the work here on earth as angels do it. Purify ourselves of every negative thought or intention, do every good deed possible without interruption while staying faithful to the Lord at all times and we shall see the fruits of a bountiful harvest, of people touched by the Word of the Lord and a meaningful existence here on earth. Thank you, dear guardian angels, for staying close to us at all times.
