peace in the world

It is sad to see how Christians are not united, how religion has become a means to division.  I believe that Christ wanted all His followers to be united.
 We are called to promote unity, justice and peace. However, in this world we have some many people who are working day and night to destroy peace. I wonder if Justice is only for the rich as one sophist once asked or equally it is for the poor too?
We should not get tired of believing that together we can build a world where Peace will be enjoyed by everyone. Peace is not just the absence of war, there can not be peace without Justice.
For a christian who truly has met Jesus Christ, such a person will and must live and relate to others as Jesus calls us to. We have to love others as Christ has loved us.

my Idea!!!

With the Incarnation of Jesus Christ, we see the coming together of the Human and Divine. It is important to know that only the Christian God in the history of religion came to live among His own. Human life is sacred as it is a gift from God. A wise person keeps reminding me in hard moments, "Lazarous smile because life is beautiful". Indeed we are called to transform this world, to be that sign of hope to those who have lost hope.

Thought of the day!!!

·         In this world, we are facing the challenge in which many of the fundamental things are falling apart. It is hard to see people having the sense of making choices which are definite, which last for life time.
·         There is a call to know to know oneself as one really is. Socrates once said, “know thyself”.
·         God knows us as we really are.
·         "There is nothing terrible and scare as truth" Fr. Marino, OMI.
Today it is hard to have points of reference, to have great role models, we are living in a world in which everything seems permissible. It calls for a real personal identity.
