Three months to the ‘walk to Midland’


Today is April 1st and even though is fools day in most of North America; it is too the beginning of Holy Week as we commemorate the triumphal entrance of Jesus in Jerusalem and so it is Palm Sunday.
Hosanna! Hosanna! Oh King of Kings, you came for our salvation, to die for us on the cross, for our redemption.
I want to ask for Canada, the United States of America and the rest of the world and most specially for the so called ‘developed’ world, which more and more appear to be bringing humanity to the most dark ages in the history of the world, by pushing nations as well as their own, into the murdering of babies in the name of the selfishness, the destruction or mockery of the sacred institutions of family and marriage.
Selfishness is taking over while love is being dismissed as a weakness of the heart. Love is needed so that truth, humility or forgiveness can exist; because the truth can only be seen with loving eyes.
The pilgrimage to Midland, Ontario is to pray for all the nations in the world so that our hearts become once again human and that we open our eyes and all senses for obedience to the Commandments of our Lord God and His Son Jesus and be fruitful with the gifts of the Holy Spirit
For that we love God with all our hearts and intensity, over and above everything and anything and our neighbors as ourselves.

Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples

Gospel text ( L uke 11,1-4): One day Jesus was praying in a certain place and when He had finished, one of his disciples said to him, «Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples». And Jesus said to them, «When you pray, say this: Father, hallowed be your name, may your kingdom come, give us each day the kind of bread we need, and forgive us our sins, for we also for-give all who do us wrong, and do not bring us to the test»

Money

Is money the ultimate goal, the end of all means? Nowadays, it seems, everything is not just measured in terms of money, but everything needs to be, has to be, in terms of money. Money is set as the goal, over anything. Money is meant to be just a media for exchange of goods and services, not a goal on itself, yet our society has corrupted onto making of money a statement beyond life, family, marriage and most definitively above love and truth. Such a philosophy has degraded our souls to the point of denying everything that is in conflict with the value of money. Even when charity is concerned, it seems mercy can only be measured in monetary terms, as if charity could be measured by anyone except God alone. If there is crusade or cause to be enrolled, the only acceptable way has been institutionalized as the amount of money it can be contributed, regardless of the individual efforts that could be applied or spent.

A matter of life or death

Maybe I am the only one in Ontario, ‘experiencing’ a confrontation with the 407ETR corporation, or maybe not. So far it seems the fact is that I am not, that many out there are subjected to billing from the corporation. No, I am not saying unfair, discriminatory or any of the kind, but I am going to say, unsupported and unsubstantiated. The issue of the matter is that the corporation, for some presumably important reason, is blessed by the province of Ontario to have the ability to stop the licensing of any individual who fail to pay the corporation anything they ask for even if they apparently, are not able to support with facts what they claim.
