The consequence of sin and the need for cleansing / deliverance!

Many of us do not realize that our actions have consequences on not only ourselves, but also on our families and the society at large. I have been reading about family healing and deliverance recently and i learned that our actions in the family affect not only us, but those around us. Many of our problems stem from family dysfunction and we will not have peace until we are delivered and healed!


Sin cuts us off from the grace of God and invites the evil one in! God will of course never cease to send you his grace and to bless you. But when you are in a continual state of sin, God's grace is blocked from reaching you and is also blocked from reaching your family members as well! You and your family end up in a cycle of misfortune and suffering and this suffering can only be alleviated after special prayers of deliverance and healing.

 
It costs you nothing to pray for God's mercy and healing and ask him to forgive you your sins and the sins of your ancestors! God is always waiting for you to ask and he will definitely set you free for his yoke is light and he will carry your burdens for you! May God bring healing to you and your families! Amen

Prisoner of love

Image
It is a beautiful thing to be in love but also a painful thing! So many misunderstandings can hurt you and sometimes it seems like you love someone more than they love you and it hurts grievously. However there is only one who understands and who chose to be a "prisoner of love" and that is Jesus Christ! We, Roman Catholics believe that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist. At the moment of consecration by the priest, the host becomes the body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus. Jesus loves us so much that he never ever wants to be far from us, so before he died he instituted the Eucharist at the last supper.  I cannot even describe how much this love humbles me and makes me realize my own poor efforts at "love". His love is so beautiful and pure and it is truly everything a person could ever want or hope for! How many insults have we given him? How many times have we not visited him in the blessed sacrament and yet he is always there waiting for us!...

Xenophobia in South Africa

Image
In the recent past weeks i have truly been shocked and saddened by the situation of xenophobia in south Africa. Some sections of south Africans have been burning and killing other Africans who are not citizens of south Africa saying they are taking jobs meant for citizens. I have even heard that some teachers in schools are asking foreign students why they came to study in south Africa. Given south Africa's turbulent racial past, this truly baffles me. The late Nelson Mandela must be rolling in his grave right now. He fought for the racial freedoms of black Africans. How can we turn on our own people? Granted, racism is abhorrent but i just cant understand violence against your own race! South Africans need to do something about this. Stand up and fight this evil before it destroys you as a country. For those foreign African nationals living in fear, our prayers are with you! I can imagine how difficult it is to live your home and start a life somewhere only to have it des...

A cheerful Giver!

Image
I am sometimes selfish, it is one of my weaknesses as a person. I pray that God gives me a selfless heart so that i can give, and not just give but give with a joyful heart. When we are being charitable, it is important not to grumble inwardly but to give freely with joy. I know it is hard because it goes against our selfish nature but truth be told, it feels good to help out someone in need. We hold on to so many things that we do not need anymore. Our basements and storage spaces are filled with things we may not need anymore but we just keep holding on to them. However one important thing to note when being charitable especially when giving away things is, you need to respect the dignity of the person receiving. Do not give them torn clothing, or things that are basically best thrown out in the trash! Lets also understand that people receiving are human beings and we all want to receive good things. A priest once told me that when we are giving, we should give something ...
