"God pays attention to our love. Not one of us is indispensable. God has the means to do all things and to do away with the work of the most capable human being. We can work until we drop. We can work excessively. If what we do is not connected to love, however, our work is useless in God's eyes..."
I like that, 'if what we do is not connected to love, however, our work is useless in God's eyes.' So we can work as many hours as we want, work has hard as we want, make as much $$ as we want BUT, if what we do is not connected to love, then its useless to God. I love mike's insight on giving w/o holding back. Thas all God asks of us, to love and to give the same way he's done for us.
I was a taught a pretty interesting lesson my coworker. She took a piece of paper and drew a circle in the middle. She then asked wha i saw i said a circle. She goes well wha bout the rest of the paper? i was like huh? She told me wha about the lines or wha bout the edges of the paper. The style of it, the color of the paper, etc. etc. The point of it was, so often we will focus on the 'big picture.' That 'big picture' is us, and the sufferings we go through. How many times have i said, 'oh kawawa me' im suffering. Instead of juss embracing that suffering and offering it up for the salvation of souls.
The true heart of a servant doesnt complain bout how many crosses they have to carry. Or how many times one has hurt them or how many times one has pushed them down. Naw, instead a true of a servant offers forgiveness, the true heart of servant gives them the other cheek to strike at it.
This is my opinion on what i think is and what i have learned a servant's heart is. So if your opinion differs from mine, then praise God. I'll be the first to say that im praying that God will give me that 'Servant's Heart.' That i can have a true heart of a servant.
Tonight was the last nite of thurs. nite SRE. I was saddened by the fact that it was over. But i rejoice in the fruits that have come out of the class. Jason, therese, melissa, and chris came by and they gave achie and i both gifts as a momentum. Then adam before he left came by and hugged both achie and i. To me thas pay day when a kid is able to accomplish something huge in their life that means the world to them. For this class it was making their 1st communionm, being able to receieve Jesus for the first time and understanding who they are receiving. Praise God!
I met Jesus last nite through errone @ yFc last nite. After SRE i went over to UCI to help w/praisefest practice. Anyway, it was so much fun!
I have the best times @ UCI. I walked in as they were having thurr 'fatty worship.' It was exactly wha this soul needed. I think my fav yfc song is 'the voice of one calling in the dessert.' Then we did 'bedsledding.' Thas freakin tight! We took the mattress of a bed, sat on it then someone pushed us down. So were 'sledding' off from the sturrs of the lecture hall! haha ITs like sledding down a hill of snow! haha
Had a great talk w/angie aka ralph aka fake girlfriend. So i met Jesus through her also. We talked bout errthang from spiritual battles, lss, friends etc. Im so blessed to have met such love filled people like her, and errone else from the UCC over @ uci. Praise God really. Then i got to ride in kfama's 'knight rider.' As i walked from engineering, down the ring road all the way down to HSLH, had a lot of time to pray and reflect. Good times, good times!
"On Jesus, through the most pure heart of Mary, I offer thee all my thoughts, works, and suffering of this day. For the intention of thy sacred heart and particualarly for the intentions of the Holy Father, the Pope."
"All i know is the beating of my heart..."im done, im out GOd bless!
