Prayer Buddies: June 10, 2018"Amen i say to you, all sins and all blasphemies that people utter will be forgiven them. But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin."
(Mark 3:20-35) Jesus is inviting as that in the midst of fake news around us we are called to announce the good news. As disciples of Christ living in faith may we focus what is God's will and look for the unseen eternal dwelling made by God for all of us. VERBUM DEI PRAYER BUDDIES

Prayer Buddies: June 9, 2018This is why the Father loves me, because I lay down my life in order to take it again. No one takes it away from me but i lay down on my own. I have the power to lay it down, and power to take it up again. This command i have received from my Father. (John 10:17-18)
Jesus already gave His life as food to nourish all of us through the Eucharist. May our life become nourishment to our family and to all human beings by touching and caring the suffering flesh of Christ in others. VERBUM DEI PRAYER BUDDIES

Prayer Buddies: June 3, 2018While they were eating, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, & gave it to them, & said, "Take it: this is my body." Then he took a cup ..."This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many." (Mark 14:22-24)
It is a good reminder of how important is the Eucharist to each one of us as Christ's followers & believers. How do we value the Eucharist that we participate & receive? Are we really convinced that it is not just simply an obligation to attend the Holy Eucharist but a part of our being? I am a Christian & so I am receiving Jesus in my life. Happy feast of the Corpus Christi! VD PRAYER BUDDIES

Prayer Buddies: June 2, 2018He depended on us in putting his life into our hands; in the Eucharist He needs our hands, he needs our feet, he needs our entire being. (Cf familiares de dios, p.441)
How humble is our God that eventhough He is already almighty but still He needed our entire being especially in the Eucharist. God's self-giving in the Eucharist is endless. How about us ? How is our attitude towards this humility that Jesus is showing in His self-giving in the Eucharist? VERBUM DEI PRAYER BUDDIES |
