THE SIMPLE PRAYER
Luke 11: 1-4

When I meet the people after the mass, I always receive the famous messages: Father pray for me. This phrase is repeated many times. This phrase appears also in my personal messages like WhatsApp, Facebook, line, and email. I always reply to them: we pray together.

Today’s Gospel tells about the prayer. The disciples ask Jesus how to pray. He explains them this simple prayer: Our Father. I think that this prayer is very easy. Everyone can proclaim it in every time and place. We can say it in a personal way, without disturb the others.

When I meet the driver who said: Father please pray for me, I don't have time to pray, I told Him: please just say Our Father.

How I pray? How many times do I recognise God in my prayer?

LEARN TO LISTEN
Luke 10: 38-42


Reflecting on today’s Gospel, I find myself on the contrary way. The Gospel invites us to become an audience than a spokesman. But, at this moment, I am learning the Thai Language, so I learn to more speak. Even this is only an exercise, until now, I don’t have many vocabularies. Every day, I try to reply to the question of the teacher and my friend but many times I fold because I can not understand the question.

I think that at this moment Jesus invites us, invites me, to learn how to listen to Him. Maria shows us his way, that is to sit in the feet of Jesus and listen to Him. What I’m doing now can bring me to more listen and sit. Now, maybe I need to more speak than listen but will come the time for me, to be more listen than speak. 

In our busy days, we try to listen to the Word of God, in our particular way. Someone can download the daily short meditation. Others may be to enter the church and just see the holy cross. Other again maybe can read the daily Gospel in his office.


Let us try it.

SMILE OF CHILD
Luke 10: 17-24


Every day, I pass by a Catholic school. After parking the motorcycle, we walk through the entering area of the school. I always smile here, seeing the children who kiss the mothers’ or fathers’ hand in the morning or those who running forward their parents at the end of the school time. Really, I always enjoy this view. I see the joy and happiness of the children and the parents. There, at this moment, happiness is not a concept but a real fact.

Today’s Gospel shows us the joy of the disciples of Jesus after doing their mission. Like the children, the disciples talk to Jesus that they reach the high success. Their power from Jesus can fall the satan’s power. Here, we see not only the power of Jesus but also how the disciples manage the evil that they face. 

We face the evil in our daily life. We joy but behind this, we face the difficult moment. Jesus gives us always new strength in faith every moment if we ask to Him and we dedicate time to listen to Him. Meditation and prayer are the best moments to listen to Jesus. If we feel his presence in our daily life, we can joy like the children who finish his class and share his joy to his parents.

Happy weekend.
