Dear friends,
With the New Year here, we have a chance to renew our faith... Consider this::
Life messages: 1) Let us strive to be pure and holy like our Heavenly Mother. All mothers want their children to inherit or acquire their good qualities. Hence, let us honor Mary, our Heavenly Mother, by practicing her virtues of Faith, obedience, purity and humble service.
2) Let us make the New Year meaningful by having for everyday a) some noble thing
to dream, b) something good
to do, and
c) Someone
to love, the first-person being Jesus.
3) Let us sanctify every day of the New Year: a) by offering every morning all the activities of the day for God’s glory, thus transforming them into prayers,
b) by asking for the anointing and strengthening of the Holy Spirit to do good to others and to avoid evil,
c) by remaining faithful to our family prayers and Bible reading,
d) by asking God’s pardon and forgiveness for our sins committed during the day and
e) by seeking God’s special protection during the sleep. Before we sleep, let us say, “Good night!” to our Lord, repeating Jesus’ last words from the cross, “
Father, into Your hands I commend my spirit."
