The Cross

 

St, Elizabeth Ann Seaton Parish, Ontario

Several years ago, in a homily of Pampanga Archbishop Emeritus Paciano "Apung Ceto" Aniceto in our parish, Sta.Ana, he shared if ever a time comes we doubt God's love for us, just look at the cross. See with eyes and heart opened how He allowed His Son,to unjustly die on the cross for our salvation.

I still make mistakes, I defy His rules here and there. I am in no position to say I am a holy lady. I have a long way to go to be an obedient, simple, humble and gracious child of our Creator but I try every day to be good.

There is one thing I am definite about though, that is God loves me with all my darkest and dirtiest deeds and thoughts and no matter how uncertain and ugly circumstances around me will be, my faith in Him and Jesus shall never be tarnished again. I know in my heart that it is and will be unwavering and firm, I will not again question His presence and care for me. I passed through that rough path already, I hurt God so much I just can imagine how much I almost cause tears on His face, for sure. Now I can say, we are good, better even.

Dear God, have I told you lately, I love You??

Cross. Faith. God.
