The third video of the 6-part DIVINE LENTEN 2016 WEEKLY VIDEO REFLECTION SERIES at the top of this post is "HOW DO WE RESTRUCTURE OUR WAY OF LIFE FOR JESUS" is by Rev. Fr. Augustine Vallooran V.C. - Director of Divine Retreat Centre, Muringoor, Kerala, India.
Fr.
Augustine challenges each of us with Godly wisdom, “We cannot continue to live
as we have been living to this day. If we continue living as we do to this day,
we would continue to be burdened, continue to be anxious, continue to be
worried and we would continue to be judgemental. All these negative emotions
and attitudes will continue to haunt us and destroy us. What is needed is a
restructuring of our way of living.”
"What
is it the tires us, Does hard work tire us? Hard physical labour does not tire
anyone. It is the mental stress that tires us – the negative emotions bundled
up in our hearts. It is that bundle that tires us!"
"The
ONE thing in life, the most beautiful thing in life, the most necessary thing
in life is to sit at the us at the Feet of Jesus and listen to His Voice."
"How
can we reorder / restructure our lives?"
"Why
is it we are unable to listen to the Voice of God?"
"The
Word of God must prevail. We must be willing to be servants/handmaids of God."
"What
makes our lives beautiful?"
“How
do we stay close to Jesus?”
"Never
justify sin! It will come back as temptation again.”
“What
you need to do is to turn to Jesus for your life to bear fruit – Fruit of the
Holy Spirit!”
All
these heart-piercing questions challenging many Catholics today is answered in
this Spirit-filled sharing of the Word of God by Fr. Augustine Vallooran V.C.
Next Sunday, Rev. Fr. Michael Payyapilly V.C., Director of Divine Retreat Centre Somersby, Australia will be sharing the Word of God on "CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP BEGINS WITH ME".
