THE GREATEST ACT OF CHARITY

 

IN THE HOUR OF OUR DEATH

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD; I SHALL NOT WANT

Psalm 23 is one of the most famous and deeply rooted in Christian tradition; but it is also a reminder for the believer to feel guided and accompanied by the firm and protective hand of God.

 David was a shepherd and he knew that the sheep trust the shepherd in any situation. When the sheep are hungry, the shepherd leads them to green pastures where they have enough grass to eat. When they are thirsty, he leads them to a quiet stream where they can drink water. When the sheep are in danger of being eaten by wild animals, the shepherd is their protector. The sheep can trust the shepherd in every situation.

  Every day we are faced with situations of great difficulty and difficult choices. Many times we ask ourselves: "Who can I trust?" The answer is: "Jesus". The Bible tells us that Jesus is "the Good Shepherd" and that we are His sheep. Like David, we can say: "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." We can trust Him in every situation.

  Dear Lord Jesus, you are the Good Shepherd and we are your sheep. We put our trust in You.

MAY, MONTH OF MARY. LET’S HONOR HER WITH OUR LOVE!

 

HOW CAN YOU BE CURED IF YOU DO NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT IS WRONG?

 

THE LIBERATING CONFESSION

 

IN YOUR PATIENCE YOU SHALL POSSESS YOUR SOULS – (Lk. 21, 12-19)

In those times, Jesus said to His Apostles: “They will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, dragging you before kings and governors, for my name's sake. And it shall happen unto you for a testimony. Lay it up therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before how you shall answer. For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to resist and gainsay. And you shall be betrayed by your parents and brethren and kinsmen and friends: and some of you they will put to death. And you shall be hated by all men for my name's sake. But a hair of your head shall not perish. In your patience you shall possess your souls.”
