Something Great happen to me, Most of you know
that I have a disc disease, nerve disorder, and all the illnesses that come
form being sick for so long. I writer wrote that his father had the disease I
have and he knew exactly what I experience everyday. Inasmuch as a robbery
brought the illness and disease into my life, the patterns that happen
following changed my life far greater than the robbery itself. Because I met
some people at the Redemptorist Church in
Kansas
city. They offered to help me, and I said if you are
going to help me, I want to help the Church. The director at the time said, you
are one of a kind many do not think as you. But I was the one that was thankful
even to this day, These people taught me the real meaning of being a child of
the King of Kings. I had never met people so dedicated to making the lives of
people in the community better. Between all the programs Redemptorist provide
for the homeless, senior citizens’, Aids patients and parishioners, fascinated
me to point I became a part of the team unlike I thought was physically
possible. I was in a Back brace from the scull to the mid past the lumbar
spine. They taught be what giving is all about. You see it is just what St. Francis Prayed,
praying the prayer is one thing,
Living the prayer is a whole other glass of water. God however yearns for us to
be His example to the world. Gandhi said you can do that right where you are. The
level of commitment is what you have to discern, some cannot afford to send
money or food for those less fortunate, but time your presence is as valuable,
even more so valuable, in my opinion or maybe unused clothing. Search your
heart and talk to God about it, for it is in giving we will receive…… Falcon

After all
it is written; He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward
him for what he has done. This is because; There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command
you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land.
( Proverbs 19:17 ) ( Deuteronomy 15:11
)
You Are What
You Put In
Your Mind
Lord, make me an instrument
of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me
sow love;
where there is injury,
pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness,
light;
and where there is sadness,
joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much
seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to
understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we
receive,
it is in pardoning that we
are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we
are born to Eternal Life.
Amen. –St. Francis
