Poem
Every time I pass by Flushing, Bedford, or Lee Street in Brooklyn I see Jewish people in complete uniform; most of them in black color, their faith and loyalty to the Book of Torah makes me reflect about my own relationship with God, along with my own people. It’s become a reminder for me as I connect my own journey to the mysteries of being called to serve and witness to faith; certain things to develop and deepen along with inner longings fidelity stressed by the Gospel marks the sign of being one of them. Discipleship is truly costly as one invests his whole life in it, there’s a radical shift of lifestyle that follows like a measure - gauging that genuineness in dialogue with life and other cultures; needed as a fundamental criterion to carry on God’s mission. It’s in this way that some highlights of my faith enable me to see beyond the texts of the Holy Scriptures, images of truth that convey love relationships with people particularly the poor. Being open to welcome some wounds and other afflictions in today’s world where everyone competes with other factors amid strong forces of secularism and cultural impositions on life’s situations where the Lord’s teaching dwells. Although God doesn’t give us all what we really want, but he provides us with certain things we really need; it’s a familiar wisdom, a continuing hope as Christians that his great love for us is often reiterated in many ways. A priority to “be mindful of the poor” and have love for them, an attitude with an evolving deal of surrender to God’s will no matter how rough the roads will be in reaching out to them reference to the poor connotes a constant clarion call for all.
