WORKING FOR GOD

 

 

I’m working for God

And no one else

Because when you’re working for others

You’re working for God too

 

Working for God

Working for love

Working for forgiveness

Working for God

Working to clean up this mess

We call our world

 

Can’t we

Change something in our world

Anything

Let’s just give it a start

Change anything

Anything in our world would do

 

Change hatred

That would work

That would do

Change gossip

That would help too

 

I’m working for God

And no one else

Because when you are working for others

You are working for God too

 

Change disrespecting the elderly

That would help

That would work too

Change discrimination

Any form of discrimination

That would help

Quite a few

 

Working for love

Working for God

Working for forgiveness

Working for God

Working to clean up

This mess

We call our world

 

Yes

Let’s all start working for God

Ps        “Whatever you do-WORK at it with ALL your heart

             As WORKING for the Lord-not for men

             Since you know you will receive an inheritance from the Lord

             As a reward-it is the LORD CHRIST you are serving”             Colossians 3:23-24

 

            “A man can do nothing better than to eat and drink

             And to find satisfaction in his WORK

             This too-I see- is from the hand of God

             For without him-who can eat or find enjoyment?”                  Ecclesiastes 2:24-25

 

           “As long as it is day-we must do the WORK of him

             Who sent me-night is coming when no one can WORK

             While I am in the world-I am the light of the world”                 John 9:4-5

NOT SO FAR AWAY=IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOT SO FAR AWAY IS=

(The Kingdom of GOD)

 

Today we read=Luke 11:29-32=WHERE the People=of Jesus’

Time=Ask for a Sign=that HE IS=who he says he is=But Jesus

Tells them=And us today=NO SIGN will be given=”For as Jonah=

Was a SIGN to the Ninevites=so also will the Son of Man be to

This generation”                                                                                                                      Luke 11:29-31

 

The people of Jesus’ day=were cynical=They had such=LITTLE FAITH=

But somehow=I cannot help but FEEL=That if Jesus came today=

We would want a sign=WE WOULD WANT PROOF=but Jesus would

Tell us=just like=He told the PEOPLE OF YESTER YEAR=to have a

Little FAITH=Yet I know=we are NOT SO FAR=from the KINGDOM of God=

For the Holy Father God=and his Son Jesus=THE GODS OF LOVE=

Live INSIDE=each and everyone of us=”Yours Lord=is the KINGDOM=

You are exalted=as Head over all”                                                                                 1 Chronicles 29:11

 

“In those days=John the Baptist=Came preaching in=the wilderness

Of Judea=and saying’=’Repent=for the Kingdom of heaven=has come

Near’”                                                                                                                                                  Matthew 3:1-2

 

“Jesus said’=’The coming of=the KINGDOM OF GOD=is not something

That can be observed=Nor will people say=’Here it is’=or=’There it is’=

Because the KINGDOM OF GOD=is in your midst’”                                                        Luke 17:20-21

 

That is=RIGHT MY FRIENDS=You will NEVER be able to say=There is=

THE KINGDOM OF GOD=It is NOT=a tangible object=but it LIVES

INSIDE OF YOU=Look for it=IN THE RECESSES=of your own heart=

Don’t let the distractions=and worries=of YOUR DAILY LIFE=obscure

Your view=You are=NOT SO FAR=from the KINGDOM of God=It LIVES

Inside of you!

 

Lent is here=and REMINDS me/US=that the LOVE AND MERCY of God

Are here=HERE and now=but the TRUE LOVE=of our perfect God=will

COME back here again=IN a physical sense too IN JESUS=we are NOT

SO FAR FROM=the KINGDOM OF GOD!=”Jesus said’=’MY KINGDOM=is

Not of this world=If it were my servants=would fight to prevent=My arrest

By the Jewish leaders=BUT MY KINGDOM=is from another place’”                       John 18:36

 

“Then the end will come=When he hands over=THE KINGDOM=to God

The Father=After he has destroyed=all dominion-authority-and power”  1 Corinthians 15:24

 

In the mean time=MY BROTHERS and SISTERS=have a little FAITH=We

Don’t need a sign=we are=NOT SO FAR=From the Kingdom of God=The Holy

Father God and Jesus ACCOMPANY us=in every single moment=of our life=

Especially our MOST DIFFICULT MOMENTS=We don’t need a sign=We

Just have to PERSEVERE IN FAITH=in hope=and in GOD’S LOVE=”And now

These three remain=FAITH=HOPE=and love=But the greatest of these

IS LOVE”                                                                                                                                    1 Corinthians 13:13

 

So HOLD ON=to God and Jesus=just a little tighter=CLING to the

Holy Father God=Just a little more=have a LITTLE FAITH=for the

Kingdom of God and Jesus=LIVE INSIDE OF YOU!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the NAME of=the Holy Father God=the GODS

Of perfect love!

NEVER WILL I

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOVEMBER 13^th, 2012

 

 

NEVER WILL I

 

 

Never will I

Live out of hatred

Never will I

Carry a grudge

Never will I

Hopefully

Hold myself above any other

Hopefully

Never will I judge

 

Who am I

To say who I am

Who am I

To say what is right

All I know is

If  I’m living

The right way

People will see it

In plain sight

 

Never will I

Give up hope

Never will I

Not continue to try

Never will I

Give up on God

Why should I

At times

In this life

He was

All that I had

 

Thankfully

At times in this life

He was

All that I needed

 

Never will I

Give up on love

Never will I

Give up on God

 

Never will I

FORGIVENESS

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOVEMBER 12h, 2012

 

 

FORGIVENESS

 

 

I have forgiven you

Have you forgiven me

 

Have you forgiven me

For any slights

I may have done to you

Real or imagined

 

I have forgiven you

Have you forgiven me

 

I have forgiven you

Because all I see are actions

I don’t know

What is in your heart

 

I have forgiven you

Have you forgiven me

Have we forgiven each other

 

I hope so

Because that might be

What it will take

In order for us

To make it to heaven

 

I have forgiven you

Have you forgiven me

SAINT FRANCES CABRINI

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SAINT FRANCES CABRINI

 

 

She was the youngest

Of thirteen children

Born of an Italian farmer

 

She was

Brought up in a strict household

But about the age 0f 20

Both her parents died

 

Two years later

She tried to become a nun

But was refused

For health reasons

 

She applied a second time

In another order

But was again refused

 

Now a schoolteacher

Who had taken a private vow of virginity

She was called

By a parish priest

To reorganize an orphanage

 

This orphanage

Was so badly mismanaged

By its foundress

That it wound up closing

 

Yet

The bishop encouraged Frances

To be a missionary

 

Papal approval

Was now obtained for her

“Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart”

 

Though her first idea

Was to go to China

She was now encouraged

To devote herself

To Italian immigrants

In the United States

 

She became a citizen

Of the United States

And later-a canonized Saint

 

The archbishop of New York

Invited her to found schools and orphanages

 

It is estimated that in 1889-when she arrived

There were 50,000 Italians

Only 1,200 of whom were church going

And most lived

In conditions of extreme poverty

 

The orphanage there had fallen through

And she had plenty of pupils

But no school building

 

The archbishop

Encouraged her to go back to Italy

But she got the orphanage going

And moved to West Park on the Hudson river

 

There she founded her novitiate

The most important house

Of her congregation

In the USA

 

Foundations followed in New Orleans

Nicaragua and Columbus hospital

Later foundations included Chicago

Buenos Aires and Kent

 

In 1917

Her congregations numbered 1,500 nuns

In eight countries

 

There were thirty-seven houses

Devoted to education, nursing

And the care of orphans

 

So much

For her earlier rejection

 

In character-she was strict

But just and loving

 

She died December 22^nd, 1917

And was canonized

By Pope Pius XII in 1946

 

Her body rests in Mother Cabrini high school

In New York

And her feast day is December 22^nd
