HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Sunday Reflection (March 8, 2020)
To be “born from above” emphasizes a spiritual renewal beyond ourselves from God through the Holy Spirit, and when we are born from above it is may be experienced as being born anew or again (John 3:1-8). We are constantly born anew from above. Do not limit it to a one-time experience.
When we are “born from above” we see the world anew with compassion. The Holy Spirit prompts us to compassionate acts done with sincerity and purity of heart. If you lack compassion: Ask yourself why, and ask God to fill you with divine compassion. May we always be “born from above.”
Sunday Reflection (February 23, 2020)
The first coming of Jesus Christ was a dawning whose brightness only grows until Christ comes again (2 Peter 1:16-19). This dawning brightness grows in the sense that the message of God’s love revealed in Jesus Christ has gone beyond Galilee and Judea unto the ends of the earth, including where you are. This dawning brightness also grows in the sense that God’s love grows in our hearts. Some 1,300 years ago St. Bede said that in comparison with the ungodly, we are the very daylight itself.
That is a heavy responsibility, but take heart and have confidence: The Holy Spirit works through your life and makes you a light to others! Do not believe the lie that God cannot work through you! God does work through you the Holy Spirit makes you an instrument of divine love and compassion in the way of Jesus Christ. May we be persistent in sharing God’s love and compassion with others. May we grow in God’s grace and love.
Prayer for the Week (Feb. 23-Feb. 29)
Let us pray that the light of Christ shine upon us: Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, it is wonderful to worship in the presence of your beloved Son. May his radiant face give us light and peace. May sin neither disfigure us further nor divide us. May the light of his transfigured face shine upon all of us and give us courage, so that we become lights to one another until we enter your everlasting light. Amen.
