Come Oh Holy Spirit, please fill the hearts of thy faithful, please enkindle in us the fire of Divine Love, please send us Your Holy Spirit Oh Lord, and it shall be created, and You Oh Lord, shall renew the face of the earth.

It was thunder and lightning kind of night last night.
Today, there is still a strong wind blowing, but the sun is shinning gloriously! Hopefully, spring is here despite the notice of plummeting temperatures maybe in the early morning or late evening today and tomorrow.
A have noticed a lot of people walking pass by the front road since yesterday. So interesting to watch. Walking with their dogs and my neighbors toddler going to daycare in his cute little wagon!!
Young mom and their baby. The exact symbol of spring.
This morning, my soon to be fifteen year old, had to ask me twice how her outfit of the day looks like.
I am learning to stop and admire when it is required and to not show a look of dismay when the choice being presented is not to my liking.
For some reason, my reaction does not elicit a positive response especially when I feel I need to show my disapproval.
Teenagers!!!
And rebellious young adults!
Many times this week, my youngest has expressed her longing for our young guests aged 8,7 and 3.
She kept looking for their noise and antics.
She is glad that for a short while she has experienced how it is to have younger siblings.
My heart is full!
I am so glad that she saw the value in welcoming these little ones in our home for one week.
Reflection questions:
How can a person learn about faith without someone instructing him? This question prompts us to reflect on our duty and responsibility in proclaiming the Gospel. What does God ask each of us to do?
Among the many titles of Jesus, which one is the most important to you? Why?
When was the last time you shared the Gospel with someone who was far away from the Lord? Are there times when you failed to respond to the prompting of the Holy Spirit to do this?
I believe, God is asking each one of us, baptized Catholics/Christians, to continue spreading His word through our actions.
He asks us to continue ministering and praying for one another.
For me, the Jesus is the Good Shepherd. He is the Living Bread that came down from heaven. If we eat Him, we will have eternal life.
Last Sunday, by God's grace, I shared to a declared non-believer, the gospel of Christ regarding the covenant of marriage.
The virtue and grace of forgiveness and patience and forbearance.
I remember two people now, who showed me in the past of this same example.
Their names are Ely and Nimfa.
Thank You Lord Jesus for the grace of this memory and the grace to keep on responding to the promptings of the Holy Spirit.
Praise to You Oh Lord Jesus Christ.
Ave Maria!
Totus Tuus.
