Love

Disturb us, Oh Lord,
when we are too well please with ourselves;
when our dreams have come true
because we have dreamt too little;
when we have arrived in safety
because we sailed too close to the shore.

Disturb us, Oh Lord,
when with the abundance of things we possess
we have lost our thirst for the Water of Life;
when having fallen in love with time,
we cease to dream of eternity;

This post is dedicated to all people in my life who have been God’s instrument in carving and shaping my life, especially to bunch of people who journey together with me in “the ULTIMATE race”. I called them, community.

–this is the manuscript for the article sent to St. Mary’s newspaper: Tomorrow, there might be some differences in the text due to Editor’s editing. A better English article can be read from Tomorrow :p (I seldom check my grammar) –

"Nothing is more practical than finding God,

that is,

than falling in a love in a quite absolute, final way.

What you are in love with,

what seizes your imagination

will affect everything.

It will decide

what will get you out of bed in the mornings,

what you will do with your evenings,

how you spend your weekends,

what you read,

who you know,

what breaks your heart,

and what amazes you

with joy and gratitude.

Fall in love,

stay in love,

Same Sex Attraction

I divide my presentation into two parts. In the first instance, I want to say something about one of our fundamental human desires – our desire for unity. Second, I want to make a few observations about the sexually saturated environment we live in. I hope that in doing so some light will be shed on same sex attraction.

Yesterday I went to the Emmaus YISS for their first session. It was kind of unplanned though. I was asked to help in the one-hour intercessory prayer scheduled at 5.30pm and I was thinking of going to adoration room after that. But after the intercessory prayer, Maggy and Valent invited me to also join the session, so I decided to just come along.

I got this from EWTN while searching for documents by Fulton Sheen. I think this is quite a good one.

Hi emmausians,

Came across this bulletin of the Family Life Society featured in the Catholic News. Felt that it's pretty good and would like to share with you all.

Let's strive to seek his face of love first.

Love, Liz.
