Faith In Dialogue With the World

We have a beautiful liturgy so dramatic and impressive that one may be glued to it, be involved and participate. It presents a new movement, along with its recurring theme, a celebration of life and promises that God, our Savior, makes us one. He teaches us to serve others, He teaches us to give humble service He makes us aware that we’re followers of his preaching to love one another. It’s an act of self-giving to love others as depicted in foot washing at the last Supper where it happens on Maundy Thursday as he institutes the Holy Eucharist as well as the sacrament of priesthood. It’s so rich with images and symbols especially in our attitude of serving people these are reminders that we’ve a role, a mission to fulfill, a faith to proclaim. In my own country where there’s poverty, corruption, injustice, and inequality; it’s a chance to incarnate in reality what the gospel teaches us to do. Though some hurdles may hinder to move freely and be with the poor yet the love of God for these people is our priority, the preferential option.
