God allows human suffering

God is always allowing man to suffer in order for man to trust more in Him and solidify his faith in Jesus Christ who is the source of everything. Nothing is permanent in this world including suffering. His resurrection is also our hope in the near future to eliminate human sufferings.

BUT FOR THOSE WHO ARE POOR,THIS EVENT IS ONLY A DREAM OR A HALLUCINATION.THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS IS A SPIRIT OF SOLIDARITY. IN WHICH THE HAVES MUST SHARE TO THOSE WHO HAVE NOTS. THE LORD INVITES US TO MAKE HIS BIRTHDAY A MEMORABLE ONE. SHARE YOUR 30 MINUTES EXTRA TIME THIS CHRISTMAS TO THOSE STREET KIDS OR AGED PERSONS IN THE CITY ALLEYS. INVEST YOUR TALENTS THIS CHRISTMAS BY PARTICIPATING IN YOUR CHURCH CHOIR GROUP AND SHARE A LITTLE AMOUNT OF YOUR MONEY TO THOSE WHO ARE IN NEED IN YOUR RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES. BY DOING THIS SIMPLE ACT, YOU ARE MAKING YOUR CHRISTMAS A HAPPY AND HOLY DAY. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !

1 PETER 5:5-8

Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility; for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil , as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour. Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

SPE SALVI (FACTI SUMUS )

POPE BENEDICT XVI WROTE HIS LATEST ENCYCLICAL LETTER LAST NOVEMBER 30 ,2007. HE SPEAKS ABOUT HOPE THAT SAVED US, QUOTING THE LETTER OF SAINT PAUL TO THE CHRISTIANS OF ROME 8,24 ( FOR WE ARE SAVED BY HOPE; BUT HOPE THAT IS SEEN IS NOT HOPE; FOR WHAT A MAN SEETH,WHY DOTH HE YET HOPE FOR?) IN THIS SECOND ENCYCLICAL OF HIS IN CONSONANCE WITH PHILOSOPHY AND THE SACRED SCRIPTURES, HE MADE HIS REFLECTION ABOUT AN AUTHENTIC SENSE OF HOPE AND DEFINES 4 POINTS IN ORDER TO LEARN AND EXERCISE THIS VIRTUE : PRAYER, ACTION , SUFFERING AND JUDGEMENT.
IN PRAYER :WHEN NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR ME, THERE IS GOD THAT IS ALWAYS READY TO LISTEN MY PLEA. IN ACTION :IN CHRISTIAN SENSE,HOPE IS ALWAYS HOPE FOR OTHERS.IT IS AN ACTIVE HOPE IN WHICH I NEED TO FIGHT EVERYDAY IN MY LIFE. IN SUFFERING:THE THING THAT CURES MAN, IS NOT THE AVOIDANCE OF SUFFERING BUT THE CAPACITY TO ACCEPT TRIBULATION,GROW AND ENCOUNTER IN IT THE SENSE THROUGH OUR UNION WITH THE RESURRECTED CHRIST. AND LASTLY THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD: FAITH IN THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD IS BEFORE ALL AND ABOVE ALL HOPE. IT SPEAKS THE RESURRECTION OF THE BODY. IT SPEAKS ABOUT JUSTICE AND ABOVE ALL ETERNAL LIFE. TO UNDERSTAND FULLY THIS BEAUTIFUL ENCYCLICAL LETTER, I ADVISE THE PUBLIC READERS TO BUY THE ORIGINAL ENGLISH TRANSLATION SINCE I AM USING RIGHT NOW THE SPANISH VERSION.

From a letter to Proba by St.Augustine,bishop

Let us exercise our desire in prayer
(Ep.130,8,15,17-9,18:CSEL 44,56.57.59-60)

Why in our fear of not praying as we should,do we turn to so many things,to find what we should pray for?Why do we not say instead,in the words of the psalm:I have asked one thing from the Lord,this is what I will seek: to dwell in the Lord´s house all the days of my life,to see the graciousness of the Lord,and to visit his temple.There,the days do not come and go in succession,and the beginning of one day does not mean the end of another;all days are one,simultaneously and without end,and the life lived out in these days has itself no end.
So that we might obtain this life of happiness,he who is true life itself taught us to pray,not in many words as though speaking longer could gain us a hearing.After all,we pray to one who,as the Lord himself tells us,knows what we need before we ask for it.
Why he should ask us to pray,when he knows what we need before we ask him,may perplex us if we do not realize that our Lord and God does not want to know what we want( for he can not fail to know it ) but wants us rather to exercise our desire through our prayers,so that we may be able to receive what he is preparing to give us.His gift is very great indeed,but our capacity is too small and limited to receive it.That is why we are told: Enlarge your desires,do not bear the yoke with unbelievers.
The deeper our faith,the stronger our hope,the greater our desire,the larger will be our capacity to receive that gift,which is very great indeed.No eye has seen it;it has no color.No ear has heard it;it has no sound.It has not entered man´s heart;man´s heart must enter into it.
In this faith,hope and love we pray always with unwearied desire.However,at set times and seasons we also pray to God in words,so that by these signs we may instruct ourselves and mark the progress we have made in our desire,and spur ourselves on to deepen it.The more fervent the desire,the more worthy will be its fruit.When the Apostle tells us:Pray without ceasing,he means this:desire unceasingly that life of happiness which is nothing if not eternal,and ask it of him who alone is able to give it.

GALATIANS 6:7b-8

A man will reap only what he sows.If he sows in the field of the flesh,he will reap a harvest of corruption;but if his seed-ground is the spirit,he will reap everlasting life.

EPHESIANS 4:29-32

Never let evil talk pass your lips;say only the good things men need to hear,things that will really help them.Do nothing that will sadden the Holy Spirit with whom you were sealed againts the day of redemption.Get rid of all bitterness,all passion and anger,harsh words,slander,and malice of every kind.In place of these,be kind to one another,compassionate,and mutually forgiving,just as God has forgiven you in Christ.

ROMANS 12:13-21

Look on the needs of the saints as your own;be generous in offering hospitality.Bless your persecutors;bless and do not curse them.Rejoice with those who rejoice,weep with those who weep.Have the same attitude toward all.Put away ambitious thoughts and associate with those who are lowly.Do not be wise in your own estimation.Never repay injury with injury.See that your conduct is honorable in the eyes of all.If possible,live peaceably with everyone.Beloved,do not avenge yourselves;leave that God´s wrath,for it is written:"Vengeance is mine;I will repay,"says the Lord."But "if your enemy is hungry,feed him;if he is thirsty,give him something to drink;by doing this you will heap burning coals upon his head."Do not be conquered by evil but conquer evil with good.

CANTICLE OF MARY

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
For he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generation will call me blessed:
The Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children forever.

THE CATHOLIC CREED

I BELIEVE IN GOD , THE FATHER ALMIGHTY,
CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH.
I BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST, HIS ONLY SON, OUR LORD.
HE WAS CONCEIVED BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
AND BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY.
HE SUFFERED UNDER PONTIUS PILATE,
WAS CRUCIFIED, DIED, AND WAS BURRIED.
HE DESCENDED TO THE DEAD.
ON THE THIRD DAY HE ROSE AGAIN.
HE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN,
AND IS SEATED THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER.
HE WILL COME TO JUDGE THE LIVING AND THE DEAD.
I BELIEVE IN THE HOLY SPIRIT,
THE HOLY CATHOLIC CHURCH,
THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS,
THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS,
THE RESURRECTION OF THE BODY,
AND THE LIFE EVERLASTING. AMEN.

PSALM 26 ( 27 )

THE LORD IS MY LIGHT AND MY HELP;
WHOM SHALL I FEAR ?
THE LORD IS THE STRONGHOLD OF MY LIFE;
BEFORE WHOM SHALL I SHRINK ?

WHEN EVIL-DOERS DRAW NEAR TO DEVOUR MY FLESH,
IT IS THEY, MY ENEMIES AND FOES ,
WHO STUMBLE AND FALL.

THOUGH AN ARMY ENCAMP AGAINTS ME
MY HEART WOULD NOT FEAR.
THOUGH WAR BREAK OUT AGAINTS ME
EVEN THEN WOULD I TRUST.

THERE IS ONE THING I ASK OF THE LORD,
FOR THIS I LONG,
TO LIVE IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD,
ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE,
TO SAVOUR THE SWEETNESS OF THE LORD,
TO BEHOLD HIS TEMPLE.

FOR THERE HE KEEPS ME SAFE IN HIS TENT,
IN THE DAY OF EVIL.
HE HIDES ME IN THE SHELTER OF HIS TENT
ON A ROCK HE SETS ME SAFE.

AND NOW MY HEAD SHALL BE RAISED
ABOVE MY FOES WHO SORROUND ME
AND I SHALL OFFER WITHIN HIS TENT
A SACRIFICE OF JOY.
I WILL SING AND MAKE MUSIC FOR THE LORD.

ACT OF CONTRITION

O MY GOD, I AM HEARTILY SORRY FOR HAVING OFFENDED YOU
AND I DETEST ALL MY SINS, BECAUSE OF YOUR JUST PUNISHMENTS, BUT MOST OF ALL BECAUSE THEY OFFEND YOU , MY GOD, WHO ARE ALL-GOOD AND DESERVING OF ALL MY LOVE. I FIRMLY RESOLVE , WITH THE HELP OF YOUR GRACE , TO SIN NO MORE AND TO AVOID THE NEAR OCCASIONS OF SIN.

V. PRAY FOR US , O HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD,

LET US PRAY: POUR FORTH, WE BESEECH YOU O LORD, YOUR GRACE INTO OUR HEARTS , THAT WE, TO WHOM THE INCARNATION OF CHRIST , YOUR SON , WAS MADE KNOWN BY THE MESSAGE OF AN ANGEL , MAY BY HIS PASSION AND CROSS BE BROUGHT TO THE GLORY OF HIS RESURRECTION ,THROUGH THE SAME CHRIST OUR LORD. AMEN.

TO THE GUARDIAN ANGEL

ANGEL OF GOD, MY GUARDIAN DEAR,
TO WHOM HIS LOVE COMMITS ME HERE;
EVER THIS DAY BE AT MY SIDE,
TO LIGHT AND GUARD, TO RULE AND GUIDE . AMEN.

MORNING PRAYER

O JESUS, THROUGH THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY
I OFFER YOU MY PRAYERS, WORKS, JOYS AND SUFFERINGS OF THIS DAY

ETERNAL CITY

I AM A STRANGER LIVING IN ROME
A PLACE OF BEAUTY AND CITY OF FAITH
PEOPLE ARE HOSPITABLE AND LOVING
WHICH ENCOURAGE ME TO STAY MORE.

AS MY COUNTED DAYS OF LEAVING IS NEAR
I CAN´T CARRY ALL THE MEMORIES I HAVE
FULL OF HAPPINESS AND LIVELY FRIENDS
WHICH SOMEDAY BE MY HISTORY.

THANK YOU, OH ! CITY OF ROME
GO FORWARD AND SHINE IN GLORY
BE THE TORCH OF HOPE AND UNITY
TO THE DYING WORLD OF HATRED AND ENVY.

BE GLAD, OH! ETERNAL LAND
DESPITE OF YOUR PROBLEMS FROM DAY TO DAY
HAVE FAITH IN GOD AND YOUR CITIZENRY
WHICH YOUR FOREFATHERS HAD SHOWED THEIR WAY.

MY DEAR ROMAN YOUTH, TO YOU I SAY
BE THE MODEL OF FAITH AND HONESTY
AS WE JOURNEY TOGETHER TO THE NEXT CENTURY
HAVE COURAGE TO FACE REALITY.

IMMACULATE MOTHER

REMEMBER US, OH SWEET VIRGEN MARY
POOR SINNERS LONGING FOR YOU TO SEE
TELL JESUS OUR BROTHER AND FRIEND
THAT WE LOVE HIM FOREVER MORE.

IMMACULATE MOTHER , YOU ARE A STAR
SHINING IN THE EVENING OF DOUBTS AND DESPAIR
DO NOT ALLOW US TO FALL , WE PRAY
AS WE WISPER YOU FROM DAY TO DAY.

OH! SPOTLESS QUEEN OF HEAVEN
GUIDE US ALWAYS IN PRAYER
EMBRACE US WITH AN OPEN ARM
YOUR LOVING CHILDREN OF THIS LAND.

WE LOVE YOU MARY, SO PLEASE DON´T GO
THE LIFE WE SHARE IS NOT OUR OWN
IT MUST BE USED IN A PROPER WAY
FOR THE COMING OF THE LORD IS NEAR TO SEE.

Friday, October 5, 2007

DO NOT QUIT

YOU ARE PRECIOUS IN THE EYES OF GOD
WHO IS THE SOURCE OF EVERYTHING YOU HAVE
THAT IS WHY BE HUMBLE IN EVERYDAY LIFE
SO THAT GOD WILL BE PRAISED AND GLORIFIED.


WHEN WE PRAY, WE GIVE HIM THANKS
NOT FOR THE THINGS WE HAVE
WE DO BECAUSE WE LOVE
THE LORD FROM HEAVEN ABOVE.

BROTHERS IN TIME OF TROUBLES , DON´T QUIT
JUST OBSERVE THE TREES BLOWN BY THE WINDS
FALLING LEAVES THAT SOMETIMES WE SAY
THAT WOULD BE THE END OF THAT POOR TREE.

LISTEN TO MY CRY, I PLEA
HE WILL NOT ALLOW TO HAPPEN TO YOU AND ME
YOU ARE PRECIOUS AS HE SAYS
BECAUSE GOD IS LOVE AND MERCY.

LIFE´S JOURNEY

IN THE MORNING,IN THE MORNING OF THE DAY
I WILL FLY TO THE HIGHEST HEAVEN
LOOKING DOWNWARD THE EARTH BELOW
I WILL COME BACK I WILL COME BACK
FULL OF HOPE.

WHEN THE NOON TIME COMES
I WILL REST UPON THE CLOUDS
THERE MAYBE PEACE IN ALL DIRECTIONS
WHERE I CAN THINK BACK MY DREAMS.

SUDDENLY THE WIND BLEW HARD FROM MY SIDE
TAKING ALL MY PLANS AWAY
I TRIED TO REACH THEM BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN
I CAN´T DO NOTHING BUT CRY.

IN THE EVENING OF MY JOURNEY
SOMEONE OFFERED ME A STARLIGHT
HE GAVE ME A HOLDING HANDS AND LOVING ARMS
I GRASPED AT HIM AND CRIED.

IN MY LIFE I SHOULD SAY
THERE ARE JOY AND PAIN TO STAY
BUT MAKE IT AS PART OF THE DAY
AND SING IT WITH GLORIOUS MELODY.

WATCH ME LORD

WATCH ME LORD LIKE A CANDLE BRIGHT
I MAY OUT OF LIGHT NO ONE CAN SAY
JUST FILL ME UP AND KEEP ME BURNING
WITH YOUR LOVE AND MERCY I WILL ENDURE

LET ME BEGIN BY THANKING YOU
FOR GIVING ME MY LIFE
SUSTAINING ME THROUGH OUT THE DAY
LOVING ME SO TENDERLY.

SO PLEASE WATCH ALL MY STEPS
I MAY FALL FROM TIME TO TIME
YOU ARE THERE TO LIFT ME UP
GIVING HOPE AND CHANCE TO LIVE AGAIN.

EVERYDAY IS A NEW DAY FOR ME
YOU GIVE IT TO ME SO PRECIOUSLY
TODAY IS A NEW BEGINNING
FOR ME TO LOVE YOU ETERNALLY.

SO WATCH ME FROM DAY TO DAY
BE MY GUIDE AND HAVE PITY
SINNER LIKE ME LOOKING FOR SOMEONE
TO SET ME FREE


LORD MY GOD ! PLEASE HELP ME. AMEN.

WOUNDED NATURE

BROKEN BRIDGES CAN BE SEEN
NAKEDNESS OF NATURE ALMOST FORGOTTEN
DIAMONDS ARE EVERYONE´S LONGING
HEART ACHES WHEN LOVE DISAPPEARS.

WATER DEEP ABOVE THE KNEE
UNPURIFIED FOR MEN TO STAY
HUMANS NEVER LEARN FROM YESTERDAY
OF DROUGHTS AND CALAMITIES.

COME AND SEE THE WORLD HE MADE
BEAUTIFUL AS IT SHOULD BE
CLEAN OUR HEARTS FROM ALL ENVY
FOR YOU TO HAVE PEACE AND UNITY.

SCATTERED LEAVES AND SHATTERED MEMORIES
NEED TO BE FIXED WITH LOVE AND CARE
TOUCH THE SOUL OF THAT WOUNDED NATURE
LIVE A LIFE OF A RENEWED FUTURE.

BREAK THE WALLS THAT DIVIDE US
DESTROY THE BARRIERS THAT SEPARATE US
BUILT A TRUST IN EVERYONE´S HEART
SPEAK A COMMON LANGUAGE OF LOVE.

SEARCHING FOR YOU

COUNTING THE DAYS I FOLLOW YOU
IS NOT ENOUGH THE YEARS I SPENT
SINGING AND DANCING THROUGH ALL THE DAYS
MAKING MY LIFE FULL OF SINS AND MISERIES.

SOMETIMES I LONG TO TURN BACK WHERE I HAD BEEN
WHERE I BLAME MYSELF FOR DISBELIEF
NOT THINKING THAT YOU SHINE FOR ME
IN ALL MOMENTS OF MY LIFE.


EVERYDAY I SEARCH FOR YOU
IN EVERY PLACES I GO
I FORGOT TO SEE YOU
IN PLANTS,ANIMALS AND MAN TOO.

SEARCHING YOU IS DIFFICULT
TO ANYONE WHO DOESN´T BELIVE IN YOU
AS IF NECESSARY TO LIGHT A TORCH IN A DAY
NOT KNOWING ITS NECESSITY


STAY CALM AND GOD WILL HELP YOU
JUST KEEP QUIET AND HE WILL TELL YOU
ASK AND HE WILL GIVE YOU
HIS WAY TO THE HEAVENLY GLORY

PSALM 63:2-9

O God, you are my God,
for you I long;
for you my soul is thirsting.
My body pines for you
like a dry, weary land
without water.
So I gaze on you
in the sanctuary
to see your strength
and your glory.

For your love
is better than life;
my lips will speak
your praise.
So I will bless you
all my life,
in your name I will lift up
my hands.
My soul shall be filled
as with a banquet,
My mouth shall praise
with joy.

On my bed I remember you.
On you I muse through
the night
for you have been my help;
in the shadow of your wings
I rejoice.
My soul clings to you;
your right hand holds me fast.

WHAT IF THE WORLD

What if the world full of cars and planes
If it gives no fresh air to enhale
What if the world full of ships and submarines
If it destroys the ocean waves.

What if the world covered with buildings and monuments
If there is no space for us to appreciate heaven
What if the world engulfed with richess and gold
If it contains hatred and violence.

A world should be place of love
Where everyone is respected as human
A world should be a house of refuge
To anyone who is lonely and broken.

What if the world full of radios and televisions
If it corrupts the hearts of the young and olds
What if the world full of churches and temples
If no one believes in Him anymore.

Lend a hand we need to share
Rebuild our hearts the real temple
Piece by piece we put together
The broken dream of God in heaven.

STRONGER THAN THE WIND

He wants to hear your shout
He loves to listen your cry
You hear the raindrops fall from a distance
You feel the coldness of the wind.

You embrace your past
You cry alone in the dark
He pretended not present
You are blown by the wind.

Drifted in the island of isolation
You wanted to end up everything
Nothing left behind but only tears
Tears that made footsteps around.

Stronger than the wind
He wipes out all your tears
He scattered the sand
Footsteps never seen.

It is in His hands, you are hold so dear
He holds you so firmly,He gives you a chance
You thank Him and cry
He smiles and you say goodbye.

IF NOT IN HIM

They say I am fortunate
For the talents I possess
But look deep in my heart
I keep all the worries I met

Once a lovely lad
Who wish not to be bad
Now in darkness I stumble
And no one to lean on


I do believe when He says," Carry on , carry on "
But sometimes I fall and He leads me His hands and am found
In Him what shall I ask
Then say, "Here I am ".

Strange light radiates my being
And I ask Him," Why now , why now "
If not in Him I still be in darkness forever
He snatched me from the grass
And now I don´t know what to ask.

PRAISE HIM

Praise the Lord at all time
Fill the mountains and hills with praise
Sing Him with joyful songs
Alleluia !

Open the gate of our hearts
Fill them with your Spirit of love
You are our hope and guiding star
The Lord is good ,Alleluia.

Praise Him,praise Him,praise Jesus still
He is the Savior,Lord and King
Arise people of God
Blow the trumpets of goodwill to men
Praise Jesus,the Lord and King.

Shout with gladness oh valleys and seas
Make it known that the Lord is King
Jump and clap your little hands
To Jesus our Savior our Lord and God.

DAILY MIRACLES

GOD GIVES YOU THE AIR,THE PANORAMIC VIEWS OF THE PLACE WHERE YOU LIVE IN PARTICULAR AND THE WORLD IN GENERAL.IS IT NOT A MIRACLE?TRUST IN HIM ALWAYS.HE WANTS TO MAKE A LIVING MIRACLE IN YOUR LIFE TODAY BY SNATCHING YOU FROM THE SLAVERY OF SIN .DO YOU BELIEVE IN HIS SAVING POWER TO DO ALL THESE THINGS ?
" CREDO,SED ÁDJUVA INCREDULITATEM MEAM".

GOD LONGS FOR YOU

I CELEBRATED RECENTLY MY 7TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF MY PRIESTLY ORDINATION AND I AM ALWAYS GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR HIS UNENDING SUPPORT.MY DAILY EXPERIENCE TELLS ME THAT EVERYTIME I INTEND NOT TO CALL HIM THROUGH PRAYERS, HE IS ALWAYS IN MY SIDE NOT FROM A DISTANCE AS THE FAMOUS SONG TELLS US.HE INVITES ME TO BE CALM AND PATIENT AND WALK WITH FAITH IN MY HEART.SOMETIMES I QUESTION MYSELF IF I REALLY RESPONDED HIS CALL THROUGH MY RELIGIOUS VOCATION AND THE REPLY IS YES I DID.DESPITE OF MY LIMITATIONS AND MY BEING A SINNER.GOD LONGS FOR ME TO DISCOVER THE LIFE HE CREATED ME TO LIVE NOW AND FOR ETERNITY.SAINT PAUL IN HIS LETTER TO THE EPHESIANS 1:11 says:IT IS IN CHRIST THAT WE FIND OUT WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE ARE LIVING FOR.LONG BEFORE WE FIRST HEARD OF CHRIST,...HE HAD HIS EYES ON US,HAD DESIGNS ON US FOR GLORIOUS LIVING,PART OF THE OVERALL PURPOSE HE IS WORKING OUT IN EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE.
MY BROTHERS IN CHRIST THROUGH OUT THE WORLD, THERE IS NO DOUBT THEREFORE, THAT HE LONGS FOR YOU AND HAS A GREAT PURPOSE IN YOUR LIFE.HE WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT HE LOVES YOU AND INVITES YOU TO BE HIS CHOSEN ONE.WHOEVER YOU ARE,WHATEVER YOUR PRESENT STATUS , SAY " YES" TO THE LORD.SURRENDER ALL TO HIM.GOD IS CALLING YOU TO BE HAPPY ALWAYS NOT IN ALL THESE PASSING THINGS BELOW BUT THE THING HE PROMISES US :ETERNAL LIFE.

NUESTRA SRA DE LA ESPERANZA PARISH
VALPARAISO,CHILE

Domine deus miserere mei

Carry me away
From the dark I fear
When the storm is near
From the endless night
From my blinded sight
To a sky of light
Free me to fly away
Salva me
Carry me away
From the things that harm
On a sea of calm
From my blinded sight
To a sky of light.
LIBERA

LIBERA - FAR AWAY

Wherever I go
Far away and anywhere
Time after time you always shine
through dark of night calling after me
and wherever I climb
Far away and anywhere
You raise me high beyond the sky
through stormy night lifting me above.
Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu et emitte caelitus
Venite Spiritu Venite Spiritus
Whenever I cry
Far away and anywhere
Your hear me call when shadowsfall
Your light of hope showing me the way .

WHY ME

I am poor and naked ,O Lord
Living in this valley of tears
You know I am alone and forsaken
to be your companion in the desert .
I said ,why me Jesus ,why me ?
You can find better person than me
But you whisper to me ,I love you
That is why I am happy and true .
Now that I have found you Lord
Even in the troubles and dangers I meet
I trust you and obey your laws
But please understand me and have patience .

ALBERT EINSTEIN

The real problem is in the hearts and minds of men . It is not a problem of physics but of ethics . It is easier to denature plutonium than to denature the evil from the spirit of man .

MY FAIR FRIEND

Dearest friend you are a summer wind
Which blew its warmest breeze
That the trunks of trees fall , and the birds sing
Where God reveals His presence.
Gathered leaves are burning
Smoke and dust yet pollute the nose
Destructive typhoons are unending
That results in man´s lost of hope .
Life´s precious moment needs a drizzling rain
Where young tender leaves drink and water
Life´s up , life´s down
Hold on dearest friend and give hope .
My dear friend your darkness is teasing
Your light through the stars is a blessing
And the wonder of our heart that beats
is a miracle from my fair friend .

SAYING OF THE DAY

It is difficult to distinguish a mango from a tamarind fruit . The only thing they have in common , is the sourness they produce .
By: Fr. Cesar Daquis Telen

FREE AT LAST

Soaring like an eagle
I look at you tirelessly
with an eyes wide open
Free at last to follow you.
In moments of desiring
I can´t count the blessings you gave
You are great and loving
For you are my refuge and shield .
Free at last to carry the cross
Which you´ve longed that dark Calvary
Which will give us glory someday .
How can I say I´m free
If I live with vanities
These will add my worries
That my poor soul will anguish .

UNCHAINED MYSTERY

Deep-blue tainted sky , complete and fair
Blowing by the most warm-summer breeze
Nature cold and warm
So balanced and calm .
Nurtured by love
Caress with awes and unbelief
Light the lamp in the tunnel of confusion
Mystery then and now no more
Unfathomable deepness of that vast ocean
measured by God´s single hand
Creatures´ miniature goodness
God always provides .
By: Fr.Cesar Daquis Telen

PRAISE HIM

Praise the Lord at all time
Fill the mountains and hills with praise
Sing Him with joyful songs
Alleluia , alleluia .
Open the gate of our heart
Fill with your spirit of love
You are our hope and guiding star
The Lord is good , alleluia .
Praise Him , praise Him , praise Jesus still
He is the savior , Lord and King.
Arise people of God
Blow the trumpets of goodwill to men
Praise Jesus , the Lord and King .

An honest answer is a sign of friendship

Today , we must desire friendship with God more than anything else . Cultivate the friendship he established to us and take good care of all of his honest answers to our daily stupid questions .
