O ur message is not meant to be kept secret but to be broadcasted. The faith we have received is not to be kept to ourselves. How many are influenced by our living according to the Christian vision? Our faith, our knowledge of Jesus and his Gospel, is not something to kept to ourselves.

To be a Christian is not just to be a good person but an apostle, an evangeliser, a sharer of faith by word and action.

YAHWEH EL SHADDAI, MAY I LIVE FOR YOU AND FOR THE GOSPEL THAT YOUR LIGHT AND TRUTH BE RADIATED TO OTHERS THRU ME, IN WORDS AND IN DEEDS. IN JESUS NAME! AMEN!

M ark 4:21-25 And he said to them, "Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not on a stand? (22) For there is nothing hid, except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret, except to come to light. (23) If any man has ears to hear, let him hear." (24) And he said to them, "Take heed what you hear; the measure you give will be the measure you get, and still more will be given you. (25) For to him who has will more be given; and from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away."

Meditation from the Living Space

No one lights a lamp and then covers it up. Our Christian faith is a light for the world;it is not to be kept hidden.

Our message is not meant to be kept secret but to be broadcast. The faith we have received is not to be kept to ourselves. How many know that we are Christians? How many see us practise our faith openly? How many are influenced by our living according to the Christian vision? Our faith, our knowledge of Jesus and his Gospel, is not something to kept to ourselves.

A "good" Catholic is not just one who keeps all the Commandments, goes often to Mass, stays in the "state of grace" but, rather, one who radiates his/her faith, shares it generously with others, is as much concerned with others having the experience of loving and being loved by God that he/she has. If we are not SEEN to be Christians we have somehow failed, no matter how good our inner lives may be.

To be a Christian is not just to be a good person but an apostle, an evangeliser, a sharer of faith by word and action.

What we give out to others is what we will ourselves receive – and even more. “To the one who has, more will be given; from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.” That is what happened to the man who buried his master’s money in the ground so as not to lose it. Those who invested it, got even more in return.

In the Christian life, we gain by giving, not be getting. It is only when we give that we can get. # # #

GOD BLESS US ALL!
