February 10th The Fifth Sunday in ordinary time


Jesus, this week we celebrate our Lady of Lourdes.

Again and again, Mary our mother, has reached out to us to show us the way to You.

Help us to truly come closer to You through mom's interceding for us.

Help us to realize how much You and mom love us inspite of our failings.

Help us also to realize that Your mercy is boundless, if only we come back to You through the
sacrament of reconciliation.

Help us to truly see You in the breaking of the bread.

Amen and Amen.


Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

Sunday CONVERSION-CONVERSATION
https://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=2/10/2019

"By God's grace I am what I am." -1 Corinthians 15:10, our transl.

The purpose of life is to be converted to the Lord. For example, "in the year King Uzziah died," Isaiah
"saw the Lord" in the temple (Is 6:1). Isaiah was converted. He saw God's glory, became painfully aware
of his own sinfulness, was forgiven and purified, and accepted God's call to be a prophet (Is 6:1ff).

Saul (Paul) was also converted. He did not see but heard the risen Lord (Acts 9:4). He was struck blind
for three days, during which he prayed (Acts 9:8, 12). Then Ananias laid his hands on Saul and healed
him of his blindness (Acts 9:17-18). Saul was baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 9:17-18).

Simon Peter was converted when Jesus helped him have the best day at work that he had ever experienced
(Lk 5:6ff). In his fishing business, he had never caught so many fish. Simon Peter knew it was a
miracle. He became very aware of his sinfulness (Lk 5:8), "left everything," and became a disciple of
Jesus (Lk 5:11).

Have you been converted to Jesus? If so, are you living accordingly? Be and live converted.


Prayer: Abba, "send me" to lead others to conversion (Is 6:8).

Promise: "...Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures; that He was buried and, in
accordance with the Scriptures, rose on the third day; that He was seen by Cephas, then by the Twelve.
After that He was seen by five hundred brothers at once." -1 Cor 15:3-6

Praise: Alleluia! The stone is rolled away! The tomb is empty! Jesus is risen!



Monday CREATION AND RE-CREATION
https://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=2/11/2019

"God saw how good it was." -Genesis 1:10, 12



Tuesday MOVING TWICE
https://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=2/12/2019

"This people pays Me lip service but their heart is far from Me. Empty is the reverence they do Me."
-Mark 7:6-7

Pope Francis, Shepherd of Truth

Notable quotations from Pope Francis and official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church

END HUNGER


"EFFECTIVE HELP"

The poor expect from us an effective help that takes them out of their misery... In this twenty-first
century that has seen considerable advances in the field of technology, science, communications and
infrastructure, we ought to feel shame for not having achieved the same advances in humanity and
solidarity, and so satisfy the primary needs of the most disadvantaged.


"WE MUST DO BETTER"

We are all called to go further. We can and we must do better for the helpless. We must move to
concrete action, so that the scourge of hunger disappears completely.


WE CAN DO IT

We do indeed have the adequate means and framework so that beautiful words and good wishes may become
an action plan of substance that leads effectively to the eradication of hunger in our world. To this
end we need joint efforts, upright hearts, and persistent concern to firmly and resolutely make the
other's problems one's own.
