136 Days - 158 Poems - 20 Posts (Poem 42)

Dear Readers,

Today's poem springs from the passage of Luke 9:49-50 where a man is not with the Apostles yet he is using the name of Jesus, and what a beautiful reply from our Lord. It is one of my favorite passages. I am happy that it was the word that I got to meditate on, and I am as well thrilled that the Holy Spirit inspired me to write on it; the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus.

Dear Readers,

today's poem is inspired by a reflection I had all day long on Mary's Fiat. I pondered on something that I read from a priest called Fr.Gaitley. According to him, even Mary was prepared to walk by faith for the role that Jesus wanted her to take on as our spiritual mother.

I thought it would make sense, complete sense, but then I pondered about her and wrote about how we surrender to God's will like her. Where are we in our Fiat toward God, the Holy Trinity? the One God in Three persons?

Dear Readers,

Today's poem is inspired by how much Christ has enriched His bride the Church,

and how priviledged I am to be her daughter, a witness of the faith entrusted to me

by the Apostles. I believe I am already experiencing the Spirit of World Youth Day in

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil...

Dear readers,

it been few days. Though I have missed updating you, I have faithfully done my best to keep writing.
It has not been easy, but is anything ever easy. In between recovering and fulfilling both my societal
duties and that of our home, inspiration did not lack.

So let me update you from where we last left of - being a people pleaser instead of pleasing the Almighty first.

• Poem 34 was inspired by the gift I have through baptism of being the daughter of the wealthiest King that has ever lived. 143 - 166 - 21
• Poem 35 was inspired by conversations that were being held on vocations. 143 -165 -21

July 12, 2013

•  Poem 36 was inspired by courageous acts I witnessed around me and how our life can radiate when we walk into what God has in store for us. 142 - 164 - 21

•   Poem 37 was inspired by a priceless moment experienced at a vigil. Today, we celebrated as well the Feast of Mother Mary under her title of Rosa Mystica, the mother of the religious. See the devotion to our Lady under this title is very much popular in West Africa and in South Asia. Today, I ponder on the Crown she gives us her beloved if we wish to receive it. 141 - 163 - 21

• Poem 38 was inspired by Our Lady. See, I have been reflecting, and studying the Immaculate Conception - the writings of St Kolbe awhile ago prompted me to start reading the Encyclical Pope Pius X wrote on the Immaculate Conception - Ad Diem Illum Laetissimum.  I am not done reading it, but what I read so far sparked me to pen. 140-162 -21

• Poem 39 is a short poem on the Eucharist. I was reflecting on the privilege of the Eucharist. What a gift of Life itself.
