thought for the day

I have been reflecting on how much God has blessed each one of us. It is important to count the blessings, we have been wonderfully blessed by God. I look at the blessing and gift of life, of family, of friends and many other blessings.

Blessing

We have been blessed by many things and we should not forget that. Life is a blessing itself.

Commitment!!!

In today's world, it is very hard to find people who are committed and who live up to their committment. For the past few weeks I have been looking at my own live and reading my own life. I reflected and prayed and finally I trusted in God. on May 1, 2012, I decided to commit my entire life to living for others as an Oblate.

 I think what helps me live my decision is to know that God who loves me is faithful. It is important in life to grow into trusting oneself.

I once read this prayer, "Lord give me the grace to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change what I can change and the wisdom to know the difference."

Mothers

I was just thinking how blessed  we are as children who have experienced the love of a mother.  I remember when I was a child how much my mum sacrificed for me, how much love she showed me. I think we can never say enough how much we appreciate the gift of our mothers.

I treasure the gift of mothers in our lives. I pray for them, those who are living and even those who have past on to the next world.
