Proverbs on Wisdom

God created the world according to His wisdom. He has willed that the human race share in the light of the divine intellect.

The following proverbs on wisdom explain :
1. Happy the man who finds wisdom and gains insight,For wisdom is of more value than silver and more useful than gold.
2. Listen to the teaching of your father. Do not ignore your mothers instruction. For they will be your graceful crown, a worthy chain around your neck.
3. Let wisdom abide in your heart. And knowledge will comfort your inner self. Foresight will guide you and understanding will protect you.
4. He who guard his mouth preserve his life; the constant talker is lost.

We should remember for the Lord gives wisdom and from His mouth comes knowledge and insight.
Have a good day to all.

Do Good

Command them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share with others. In this way they will store up for themselves a treasure which will be a solid foundation for the future. And then they will be able to win the life which is true life".

Saint John Berchmans

John, son of a shoemaker, was born in a small town in Belgium in 1599. As a boy, John had a very great devotion to Holy Mass and the Rosary.

When John was only nine years old, his mother became ill. Every day after school, he gave as many hours as he could to the care of his suffering mother.

For three years, he was a pupil of a parish pastor who prepared boys for the priesthood. Then he entered the newly opened Jesuit College of Mechlin in 1615. A year later, he joined their novitiate.

After three years, eager to continue his studies, he journeyed to room on foot to enroll at the Roman College. This difficult journey took him ten long weeks.

Do not be afraid for I have redeemed you
I have called by your name. You are mine.
ISAIAH 43:1

Dedication to God's Work

The Great Jubilee is, therefore, not simply a time for intensified practices of
piety and Church visitation. It is call for renewal and rededication as a people of God. The ways for renewal and rededication may be summarized in seven R's. These are:

  • Release from slavery
Today, many people still live in bondage; slavery to poverty, to drugs, to fear;
slavery to greed for power, money, fame; slavery to junk food, alcohol and carbonated drinks, cigarettes; slavery to pornographic magazines, a life of indolence, and many others. What can you do to release yourself and others from the slavery you have put upon yourselves?

  • Recall of debts
Our country is shackled by foreign debt. What can you do for yourself, your
family and your community to lessen the need of our country to depend on foreign loans to fund its projects?

  • Return of the land
Our country is rich in natural resources but if we are wasteful and if we do not
take care of these resources, we will surely run out of them. What can you do to maintain , if not enrich, our natural resources?

  • Rest for the earth
God gave us a beautiful world. But, today, almost anywhere we go, we see
signs of grave pollution. How can you influence others to develop habits that are environment friendly?

  • Respect for the family
The family is the basic unit of society. Do you have a harmonious
relationship with members of your family? How can you encourage other uphold family values?

  • Re- empowerment of the people
Both PCP II and PCM II stress greater involvement of the laity. How can you
participate more actively in the activities of your parish?

  • Renewal of the Missionary Spirit
John Paul II challenges us to be the "light of Asia." We who have
been the recipients of God's graciousness, are likewise challenged to share this with others.

Did you that UNITARIANS believe in the unity of God, rather than in the doctrine of the Trinity as found in historic creeds of the Christian church. The term Unitarians also extends to religious groups dating from the 1500's to the present who rejected not only doctrine of the Trinity, but also creeds as the basis for authority in religion.

The Word of God

We listen to the readings from the Bible. the readings remind us of God's saving love and of His promise to send a Messiah. They also remind us of all the good things God has done for us. We respond by singing psalms about God.
The Apostles must have been sad and frightened after the death of Jesus. To forget their sadness and fear, they must have exchanged stories about things Jesus told them in the past. They must have sung psalms, too; to keep their spirits up.

Peace On Earth

Pope John XXIII wrote a very important encyclical entitled Peace on Earth. In this encyclical, Pope John summarized Jesus' teachings about God's Kingdom to help us know that human beings have rights. When these rights are being violated, the Kingdom of God is failing.
Below are the human rights taught in the encyclical.
These rights are gifts from our loving Father.

  1. The right to life and a decent standard of living.
  2. The right to respect and to a good reputation.
  3. The right to search for and express truth.
  4. The right to pursue art and culture.
  5. The right to be informed truthfully about events.
  6. The right to education and training.
  7. The right to worship according to one's conscience.
  8. The right to choose freely a state of life.
  9. The right to work and work without force.
  10. The right to good working conditions.
  11. The right to just wages for one's work.
  12. The right to private property.
  13. The right to associate with other people.
  14. The right to move about freely.
  15. The right to take active part in public affairs.
  16. The right to legal protection for one's rights.

These rights belong to all of us. We can start putting them into action in our homes, in our classroom and in our communities. We can begin doing them through the way we treat our family, classmates, neighbors and even people we don't know.

The Eastern Season


Easter is the most important season of the year. It is a time for rejoicing for Jesus has risen from the dead. St. Paul tells us that without Ressurection, our faith would be in vain.
The Easter season begins with the Easter Vigil on the night before Easter Sunday. We call Jesus' Ressurection with signs of His new life: Paschal candles, water and song.
In the early years of the Church, Easter was the time to receive into the Church those who wanted to become Christians. These candidates were called catechumens or converts . Today, the beautiful Easter liturgy still welcomes all who would share in Jesus' passion, death and Ressurection.
It is during the Easter season that we celebrate Jesus' Ascension, and the descent of the Holy Spirit.

Mary, the Mother of God, has been given special honor since the early days of Christianity. We love and honor Mary beacuse she is the Mother of Jesus. Besides, Jesus gave her to us as our Mother.
One way by which we show our love and honor for Mary is through the celebration of her feast days. These feast days celebrate important moments in Mary's life. They show how much the family of God loves Mary.

Following are some of the feast days we celebrate:

There is no record of Mary's actual birthday but September 8 has been traditionally celebrated as the birth of Mary.

In many European countries, the feast of Mary's birth is celebrated together with the harvest celebration. In France, September 8 is within the harvest season for grapes. The workers gather the ripe grapes from the vineyards and select the best of the fruit. These they pile at the feet of Mary's statue in honor of her birthday. Then they pray in thanksgiving for a good harvest.

In the Philippines, we celebrate the birth of Mary with special masses and floral offerings. Some Catholic schools choose this day for the first Communion of their pupils.

Ordinary Time

These are the Sundays when nothing else is scheduled. The season consists of two in-between periods. One is a short period between the Christmas season and the beginning of Lent. The other is the long period between the Eastern season and the first Sunday in Advent. The Sundays of the Year. During this season, the Holy Spirit helps us to remember that ordinary days are important, too.

Each Church season has a color. The color of Advent and Lent is purple as a sign of penance. Christmas and Easter are white or gold as a sign of joy. The color of the Sundays of the year is green as a sign of hope.

The Advent Season


The season of Advent refers to the four weeks before Christmas. During this period, Catholics recall the years of waiting for Jesus. At that time, the people prepared themselves for the promised Messiah or Savior by trying to follow the laws of God.

Today, we celebrate Advent by giving thanks to God for our redemption in Christ. It is during this season that we are called on to do penance in anticipation of the joyous feast of Christmas. The penance we are called on to do need not be extraordinary sacrifices. All we need to do is to follow our normal routine offering each day to God and being more thoughtful of other people. The season of Advent is meant to remind us to live our lives closely to Jesus so that we can join Him in Heaven.

On Advent as we prepare for celebration of Jesus' coming into the world, let us pray for the grace to value things the way Jesus does. Let us want to only things that we really need. By doing these, we make room in our hearts for Jesus. We make ourselves worthy to celebrate Christmas

Simeon's prophecy


When Jesus was presented at the temple, Simeon saw Him together with Joseph and Mary. Simeon said to Mary, "This Child is destined to be the downfall and the rise of many in Israel, a sign that will be opposed. And you, yourself, shall be pierced with a sword, so that the thoughts of many hearts may be laid bare."

cf. LUKE 2-27:35

Strike a Balance


Man did not weave the Web of Life, he is merely a strand in it, What ever he does to the web, he does to himself.

You will never have a river steady and sure in its flow, Unless in the upper reaches. Trees verdant and helpful grow. and you will never find a forest wide and refreshing and grand. Unless it is nourished by rivers. that flow through, renewing the land. And man who destroys the timber, leaving the mountainside bare. Wonders what dried up the river that once ran steadily there.

About Christmas


♥ Christmas is a time for remembering others and forgetting our selfish attitudes. It is a time for reaching out to our brothers and sisters in the bond of love and concern.

What are some good ways of celebrating Christmas?

Here are some suggestions:
1.) Participate in the liturgies of Christmas, listen well to the Scriptural readings and reflect on what they mean to you.
2.) Look around you to see who needs your warmth and help.
3.) Work with others to make sure that all of God's people know the Good News that Jesus was born for them.

Rise up in splendor!
Your light has come,

The glory of the Lord
Shines upon you.
ISAIAH 60:1

He who was the Son of God,
for you He has become the Son of Man,
So that you who were children of men
might become the children of God.
That He might give us of His good things, He shared with us our infirmities.

Proverbs 19:18

Disipline your children while there is hope if you don't you will run their lives.

Fossils

Hey guy's Don't you know that a Fossil- is any evidence of a living thing of the past. You know that Fossils show as what the animals and plants of long ago were like. They are usually found in deep mines and in sedimentary rocks. They are also found in the banks of rivers and streams and in cliffs along the ocean floor.

A fossil may be an imprint of a living thing or a footprint of an animal. The imprint is made when a dead plant or animal falls into soft sediment. When the sediment hardens into a rock, the shape of the plant or animal is preserved in it. An animal may leave its footprint in the mud. Water may cover the footprint with sediment. When the sediment hardens into a rock, the footprint is preserved. Isn't it?
