I was deeply move by the gospel today.. here it is:

13 When Jesus heard of John the Baptist, he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns. 14 When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick. 15 When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, “This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves.” 16 Jesus said to them, “There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves.” 17 But they said to him, “Five loaves and two fish are all we have here.” 18 Then he said, “Bring them here to me,” 19 and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds. 20 They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over — twelve wicker baskets full. 21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children.

The world today is simply complicated. Many people are staring, dying out of hunger. And yet many others are abundantly provided with food to eat, good for ten years. Still, we know that there is enough for everyone. What is lacking in this world is our desire to share. The world is in need of the spirit of generosity among peoples.

I was moved especially when Jesus said to bring the food they have to Him. Then He said the blessing and broke the loaves and gave them to His disciples and the disciples gave them to the crowd.

It is like Jesus is talking to me saying, "Whatever you have, surrender them to me, and I will make you a blessing to many others." I was teary eyed as I listened to the priest's homily a while ago. Because I feel for the poor.. I feel like I could give nothing to the world and to God. Yet He reminds me that i should not depend on myself, but I should believe and count on His plans for me.

That is why, I won't worry about anything. There is no need to. Let us just have faith on the One who is in control of everything. ;)

Lord, thank You for using me in sharing Your story to others. I am so glad, Lord. I never thought I could do that sharing in front of an audience larger than the audience I am used to sharing. Haha! Basta Lord, I am so happy that I have glorified Your name. I hope I could do that all the days of my life.

Thank You nga pala kasi na-repair na po ang printer na binigay mo sa amin, and the ink cartridges are full. :) Please help us to use them wisely. ;)

Thank You rin po kasi super akong na-inspire nina Niel and Beth sa kanilang dance number sa PGT semi-finals.. Gosh! It was so lively! And salamat po for inspiring me with the wonderful disco peromance of Courtney and Kent. I so, so love dancing talaga, Lord. I hope I would also stand firm on my passion for chemistry and mathematics. :) Please continue to speak to me, Lord. And may You help me to be a forgiving, loving, and forgiving person.

I love You! :)
