Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ






Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 2:41-52. 

Each year Jesus' parents went to Jerusalem for the feast of Passover, and when he was twelve years old, they went up according to festival custom. 

After they had completed its days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, but his parents did not know it. 

Thinking that he was in the caravan, they journeyed for a day and looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances, but not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem to look for him. 

After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions, and all who heard him were astounded at his understanding and his answers. 

When his parents saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been looking for you with great anxiety." 

And he said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?" But they did not understand what he said to them. He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart. 

And Jesus advanced (in) wisdom and age and favor before God and man.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ




Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 21:25-28.34-36. 


There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. 

People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand." 

Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise 
like a trap. For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth. 

Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man."

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ


Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark 12:38-44. 





In the course of his teaching Jesus said, "Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in long robes and accept greetings in the marketplaces, seats of honor in synagogues, and places of honor at banquets. 

They devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext, recite lengthy prayers. They will receive a very severe condemnation. 

He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.

A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents. 

Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them, "Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury. 

For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood."

ONLY YOU

A special burst for a special person on her special day...




I would not expect to solicit that filial mode of appreciation as I have and assured my unworthiness in your life. I will just use my biological existence and the simple fact that my blood runs into you and the uncontested reality that we look almost the same.

I’m asking the heavens to bless your new life as a woman. I believe honestly in you. The courage and your current disposition in life will get you through the challenges and miscues in life. Continue to draw strength from those whom you value the most.

It’s an entirely new chapter in your life so make it worth. Even in my present predicament, I may have been gone for a while but now, I can assure you that your big man will not leave you anymore. I’ll renew my being a father, a close friend, confidant, mentor, eating and ‘’leverage’’ buddy to you once again.

After some time, a girl suddenly turns into a woman. All I ask of you is to remain the same Jing-Jing at heart. Inspire and move others by showing an honest and good example. I LOVE YOU and Happy Birthday!!!

Fistbump!

I need nothin’ else to say
i could live my life on through another day
a thousand words I want to speak
but I need nothin’ else to say.
And through me, eyes will see
there will be only you... only you....

I believe that love alone might do these things for you
I believe in love alone
Take the power to set you free
Kick down the door and throw away the key
Give up your needs
Your poisoned seeds
Find yourself elected to a different kind of creed

I believe in the power of creation
I believe in the good vibration
I believe in love alone

Won't somebody tell me what we're coming to?
It might take forever till we watch those dreams come true
All the money in the world won't buy you peace of mind
You can have it all but you still won't be satisfied...

Now, hear this
Pay attention to me
Because I'm a rich white girl and it's plain to see,
I got every kind of thing that the money can buy
Let me tell you all about it
Let me amplify, I got diamonds?
You heard about those
I got so many that I can't close my safe at night in the dark
Lying awake in a sick dream....

Money can't buy it.
Sex can't buy it.
Drugs can't buy it.
You can't buy it..

Follow the heart


Allowing ourselves to at times, perceive a right thing or a wrong thing as the suitable move which in turn, results in the other way, is inevitable. Our own perception and foresight of things makes us do them. Even the rightful power of the conscience steps in and takes charge. Ego or pride is sometimes the culprit. With what others may think or say can be a factor in making or doing what is needed to be done. More frequent than not, we act though the great influence of our hearts.




Our hearts, or our feelings, must be included always in our perception of what is right or wrong. Mistakes along paths are admissible, for it is within them that we are realized and reminded that what we did was right or wrong.

Try to double check to be sure that you are doing what is needed follow what your heart says.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ



Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark 9:30-37. 


They left from there and began a journey through Galilee, but he did not wish anyone to know about it. 

He was teaching his disciples and telling them, "The Son of Man is to be handed over to men and they will kill him, and three days after his death he will rise." 

But they did not understand the saying, and they were afraid to question him. 
They came to Capernaum and, once inside the house, he began to ask them, "What were you arguing about on the way?"

But they remained silent. They had been discussing among themselves on the way who was the greatest. 

Then he sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, "If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all." 

Taking a child he placed it in their midst, and putting his arms around it he said to them, Whoever receives one child such as this in my name, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but the one who sent me.

Caring

My stroked mind is brought to attention on asking why are there some people who pretend they care but in reality they don’t. Once stripped of the earthly drappings, true colors will come.

It has always been that way, the way I see it. The real soul intent of an individual emerges in uncompromising situations. There are times that they are obvious and at times not. The best way for us to be ready for it is that we shouldn’t expect too much. Expecting too much somehow lowers our self-dependency.

Another way to ready ourselves is the other way around. Expect the worst. It may sound funny but preparedness to a person’s motive or agenda is best done in this way. Expecting per se is lessened for what is readied upon is the worst.

More saddening is the people close to you are the ones responsible for this kind of unwanted attitude. All my stroked being could do to those I mentioned is pray.

Nothing is permanent in life


In addition to my search for what is the subconscious unknown entity only known as mere ideas, I am drawn to post this quite intriguing question; are all things existent or not, have and end? My limited thinking brings me back repeatedly to the reality that there is absolutely none that lasts forever.


This idealism brings speck of hope in all of us if we are to look in a more positive perspective. All our problems, worries and anxiety are just temporary. They exist maybe to test our human adaptability to pressure or being into tight circumstances. Emerging into these temporary instances or being jailed unto those asserts what kind of person are we. It thus, makes or breaks us.

But no matter how intense they are or how enormous is it, don’t let them ruin you. Just as stated earlier, these worries are just temporary and will not last long. It all too shall come to pass.

Heaven to me...

by AVB

I don’t know but my being rude to literary rules dominated once again. Pardon me for being shallow. It’s just that I was inspired by the flash of charismatic persona encased in an unnatural body. An angel, I guess.


Knowing you know me
That in return you gladly
Is heaven to me

To know that you’re by my side
Calms me instantly
Is heaven to me

All that’s in you
Your whole personality
Is heaven to me

Your face such a wonder
The smile....oh, gee...
Is heaven to me

The air you exhume
Captures me completely
Is heaven to me

Just by seeing you there
Though I’m not worthy
Is heaven to me

Noticing me above everyone
Makes me proud and happy
Is heaven to me

You are, of course
An awe ideally
Is heaven to me

Bursting...


Gasping for that ‘second wind’ as if it was true, I managed again to burst out realities, fictions and some quite obvious but unseen happenings in life. And again, forgive my deepened operatic insanity.
