eucharist will be eucharist. every night is a night to remember. every celebration is a conversation to cherish. for the past two saturdays celebrating the eucharist, i should say that the priests rock! father glen and father migz were really great in delivering their sermons/homilies.
father glen. august 25 eucharist is more than like a eucharist. it's a conversation with God which tells us what love and marriage is all about. it's so funny because a lot of people shared about the readings. one particular thing that struck me is the second reading from ephesians 5: 21 - 32. you can read it here - its in tagalog because i am a tagalog. =) .
in the reading, it talks about submission - not just the wives/women to their husbands/men but vice versa. father glen talks about this submission by giving an example about a "may-december" love affair - where a woman is a lot older than a man - of course it can be the other way around. father glen said and i quote
ang tunay na pagpapasakop ay yung pag-tingin sa kagandahan at biyaya ng bawat isa.
real submission is looking into the gifts and inner beauty of one another.
and it's true right? this is why, it is important to look for someone that will not just make you feel comfortable dealing with (e.g. physical features) but also look for the gift of one another. something that will make you say, "she changed me for the better.". and i think i found the one.
thank you father glen for this.
father migz. september 1 eucharist is a completely different thing. i see a God who reminded me that life must go on. i must say that i'm not doing good these past few days because of assessments and probably promotion. and quite devastated about it. of course, i can't talk things in detail but God reminded me of something.
it was almost the end of his homily. father migz stopped and talked about the following God's will.
ang kalooban/kagustuhan ng Diyos ay napakahirap unawain. pero kung tayo ay papa-loob sa Kanyang kagustuhan ay saka lang tayo magiging kaloob ng Diyos, isang regalo.
following God's will is difficult to comprehend. but if you'll just obey His spirit, that is when you'll become a gift.
probably, it's really not yet my time. not time to have a rating that i want. probably, i'll do something different this year. something i never did before. just like the lesson in "who moved my cheese?" by spencer johnson, i just have to look for another way to get what i want. well, i guess this is enough. God talked to me last night in the presence of father migz and i know i feel better.
thank you father migz for this.
one of our eucharistic celebrations.
