SHARING OUR GIFTS!

 

SHARING OUR GIFTS!

 

WE all have different amounts

And different KINDS OF GIFTS

In this world

 

But one thing=

We all have to LEARN IS

That life

IS NOT=Just about me

 

It is about=what we have

And what we CAN GIVE BACK

To God=and to the world

HELPING others along the way

SHARING OUR GIFTS!=with the world

 

“Let the COMING GENERATION

Be told of the Lord

 

That they may PROCLAIM

To a people=YET to be born

The justice=he has shown”                                                                                                      Psalm 22:32

 

It is a GREAT TEMPTATION

To make our life

Just about me

 

But we have OTHERS=Besides ourselves

Who need us

And we have FUTURE GENERATIONS

Yet to come

 

SHARING OUR GIFTS!

With the world=for FUTURE GENERATIONS

 

“Consider the blameless=

Observe the upright

A FUTURE awaits those=who seek peace”                                                                              Psalm 37:37

 

“There is surely

A FUTURE HOPE=for you

And your hope=will not be cut off”                                                                                         Proverbs 23:18

 

“For I am convinced

That neither death=nor life

 

Neither angels nor demons

Neither the present

NOR THE FUTURE…….

 

Will be able

To SEPARATE us=from

The love of God

That is in Christ Jesus=our Lord”                                                                                      Romans 8:38

 

This world=this life

Is NOT JUST ABOUT ME

It is

SHARING OUR GIFTS

With those around us=in this world

And of=FUTURE GENERATIONS

To come

 

“Command those to do good

To be rich=in good deeds

 

And to be generous

And=WILLING TO SHARE”                                                                                                     1 Timothy 6:18

 

ONE MAN who did this

Who SHARED his gifts

Was Saint John Bosco

Who we CELEBRATE TODAY

 

He was a great EDUCATOR

And SHARED HIS GIFTS

With the coming generation

PARTICULARLY YOUNG MEN

 

He is a GOOD REMENDER

Not to be anxious=and selfish

About our lives=

And to SHARE OUR GIFTS!

With those around us

And the coming GENERATIONS

 

Dear Lord=help us to REALIZE

OUR GIFTS-are to be SHARED

 

SHARING OUR GIFTS!=with your great VISION LORD

For ourselves=and for the world around us

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our ALWAYS TEACHING=Holy Father God!
