The Call to be People of God

The Call to be People of God

March 7, 2013. Thursday, Week 3, Lent


The Liturgy today 
reminds us that 
our call to bear fruit is 
a call as a community; 
a community of 
people of God. 
I shall be your God 
and you shall be my people. It should bring to our mind those moments 
we were ruled 
by egoism and division! 
The one who does not gather with me, scatters! 

Bearing Fruit is not like how the world today promotes... Being successful by any means! It is not efficiency, or parading results! No wonder why Blessed Mother Teresa clarified, we are called to be faithful, not to be successful. We cannot lose our consciousness of being called to be People of God, One people of God, united in heart and mind. If we do not gather, we scatter!
