Daily Gospel Reflections | "Every creature is a Word of God." ~Meister Eckhart~

WELCOME

Dear Friends,

For what they are worth, I invite each one of you to come to my “Daily Gospel Reflections” corner. These reflections are designed as a ‘spiritual food’ for all those who wish to nourish their spiritual life.

Part of my intention of writing these reflections is to challenge readers to reflect their own faith in light of God’s Word and hopefully, this would motivate them to exemplify their Christian faith in their daily lives. As someone said, “The words of God by themselves are just words. They come alive when they are lived.”

Not all of these reflections are of my own writing. Some – I may have copied them somewhere because they are interesting, and some may have been sent to me by friends and acquaintances, for my own reading and reflection, but of which I am not able to trace their source anymore. If in some way I have inadvertently not given proper credit to someone who has written a reflection which I may have posted here, for whatever reason, please accept my apology. It is not my intention to appropriate something which is not my own. But there are certain things that are simply beyond my control. In any event, I will try my best to give credit where credit is due.

Yes, for busy people like I am, these reflections could provide resource materials for personal meditation and self-examination. For eveyone, these reflections could serve as impetus to deepen one's spirituality.

I like what Fr. San Luis once said: "Reading about God’s word or hearing it on Sunday is not like listening to a cassette tape rerun. You hear it now, then forget it after a while. Rather it should question and enlighten our minds, move and inspire our hearts; above all, guide and challenge us to put Christ’s teaching into practice and thus make his Word alive.”

God bless you all.

With love,

PACIANO ALEXANDER BARBIETO
