When Prayers become a hit!
18 March 2016 Here comes my own testimonial of how powerful PRAYERS are! I am saying “PRAYERS” because I am referring to the collective prayers of the people who have heard my plea. I delivered a talk on Loving thy neighbor in one of the CLS a couple of weeks back and on that event, I closed my talk by asking the participants and the service team to pray for me for the struggle that I have been seriously dealing with, related to this commandment. When Prayers become a hit! Indeed, (after the talk) – a week had passed without a sign of that struggle I shared to…

Movie Review : Miracles From Heaven (2016)
Yes I am a fan! For a while I have been looking forward to watch this movie. I have been following Jen taping this film since last year. The plot has been clearly defined in the trailer. A loving family who has 3 daughters and one of them (Annabel) has an incurable disease that up to date science don’t have an answer. “Are you there!?! Can you hear me!?! Cause I can’t hear you”! – Christie Beam (Jen’s character) asked by looking up to heaven. We all go through this moment, when we tend to ask God why, where are you? Why of all people; I or this person…

Taxi
TAXI Today is a long day, OT and a very loaded, stressful week for me. After work I headed to a restaurant to fill my hunger tummy and regenerate energy. Taxi was rare, I waited for some time – some overtake and took the cab which should be mine. But I stay calm and finally it arrived. Me: Hamdan boss Driver: Where exactly… I gave the location but he didn’t know. So I asked: Me: Are you new? Driver: Yes. Yes in Abu Dhabi but not in the UAE. So I told him to drive to Hamdan & I will teach him where the location is. In a minute; he…

CROSS: The Sign of our FAITH
CROSS: The Sign of our FAITH In Ancient Greek, a sign is known to be a mark of ownership. Thus doing the sign means we are letting yourself to be owned by God. A seal we that we acknowledge being a warrior of Christ. This sign in itself is already a prayer. Doing the sign means we open ourselves to God’s grace. Moving our hands from the forehead to our heart/womb, then to our shoulders, we are asking God to bless our mind, our body and the very core of our desires and passion to Christ. ” Pope Innocent III wrote in his instructions on making the Sign of the…

I am Catholic
When our fellow believers start to question us about our faith, most of the time we tend to back down because our faith seemed to be just a “hand-me-down” culture/religion… It is important that as a faithful believer, we don’t only follow blindly but we follow with a grateful heart because we know deep in our hearts the reasons why we do these things. So here’s a list/guide of the bible scriptures that will answer the cabwebs on our heads related to the Catholic faith. Important things we should know as Catholics. – CATHOLIC DOCTRINES ARE IN THE BIBLE – Catholics are always intimidated into believing that we do things…

Gratitude
Gratitude We often hear the priests and our brethren in the community to Give Thanks to the Lord. In most of our teachings, I always hear that we rob ourselves of blessings by not thanking God for what all that he has done, is doing and will do for us. In Psalm 116:12-13 it says: “What shall I render to the Lord for all His benefits toward me? I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.” Therefore in this post, I would like to share my own thoughts on the specific ways to express gratitude to the Almighty one! I…
