How
many of the things that you know do you FULLY understand?
Are
you that type who easily gets the picture which others find difficult to
interpret?
Or are
you most of the time that last person to identify with others when things are
up?
What
do you usually do when you don’t understand?
Do
you worry much and think a lot?
OR …
you just shrug your shoulders and care less?
Whether
an architect could come up with a good plan or not, would depend upon his
ability to visualize what his client wants; yet he should understand all other
structures & relevant recommendations – along with a TEAM to be able to produce
an effective blueprint.
Today,
Jesus calls us to a certain state of discernment as we commemorate The Solemnity
of the Most Holy Trinity where in the readings, the Father creates with wisdom that
He wants us to achieve His Plan of Salvation; while the Son works to glorify His
Father; and the Spirit will bring to completion, the work of the Father and of
the Son.
When I was a child, I loved doing
that sign “in the name of the Father, of the Son & of the Holy Spirit”
although it confused me “how many Gods we have?”. When in High School I made
every effort to read the Bible on my own, I hoped to understand what explains doing
such sign with those three characters; yet, I was instead made to discover –
not the answer to my query – but “a certain kind of relationship” to which I
never afforded to cast any speck of doubt. I was instead made to experience a
life of difference having God’s messages which were not really as clear as the water,
but which built a temple deep within my being.
Just as He told me then, He speaks again …
“I still have many
things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now…”John 16:12
The meaning? -- still ambiguous;
mystery is still intact! Yet, now that
I’m already a Mom who wants to be a part of the lives of our kids even if I’m
no longer around, I eloquently understand why God still needed to send the Holy
Spirit even if Jesus has already done all the “coaching & modeling” that was
instructed of Him. “Ganon pala talaga,
if you have that love in your heart, ‘di ganon kadaling basta umalis na lang.
Kailangan siguraduhin mong naituro mo lahat ng kailangan nilang matutunan.
Kailangan mapaalalahanan mo sila ng mga dapat nilang gawin kapag sila na lang.
And, just to be so sure na di sila makakalimot, ibibilin mo pa sila sa mga
taong magpapaintindi sa kanila ng mga di pa nila naintindihan sa ngayon. “
The father, the mother and the
children … is the team who should carry out the Architect’s blueprint! Of each, there may be some messages which we
may not understand at the moment. To worry much and think a lot wouldn’t be a wise shift! But
most of all, to just shrug our shoulders and care less should never be an
option! We should MOVE instead, and
grasp any of the gifts of the Holy Spirit: [1] wisdome, [2] understanding, [3]
counsel/right judgement, [4] fortitude/courage, [5] knowledge, [6]
piety/reverence: deep sense of respect for the Church, [7] fear of the
Lord/wonder & awe for us to be the Biggest Winner! Jsunset
