Your Kingdom come
Pope Benedict, speaking on the feast of Christ the King in 2012, said: "We invoke the kingdom daily in the prayer of the 'Our Father' with the words “Thy kingdom come”; in effect we say to Jesus: Lord, make us yours, live in us, gather together a scattered and suffering humanity, so that in you all may be subjected to the Father of mercy and love." As I reflect on...
Listen to me
When children are growing up, they receive love from their family. Then, when they are older, they can give that love to other people. They give love, and at the same time they receive kindness, happiness and hope. Then they have more love that they can give. But you have given your love, and you have received nothing. Now you have no love that you can give. People...
“Made a mistake, but that doesn’t mean I’m a mistake”
We are not held to my past or my past decisions forever. I can change. If I’ve made a mistake, I can make it right and move forward in a positive direction. I should fix it. I cannot sit on our laurels. A virtuous person who turns from righteousness and acts in an evil manner will be held responsible for those actions as well. We have the choice to do good or to do...
The power of prayer
To talk to God. This is something I do every day. I talk to God about hopes and fears. I talk to God about good things for parish, people who are asking me about it. I talk to God about different ways to make the world a better place. The prayer seemed to give me something extra. The prayer is more powerful than nuclear bomb. The more you believe in whatever you are...
Well so that is truth
"You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, by relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death" (Lk 21.16).
Have I got anything else?
After reading once of the Gospel pass of Luke I was embarrassed by some thoughts of mine. "I tell you, to all those who have, more will be give; but from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken away" (Lk 19.26). Have I got nothing? Have I got anything else?
Keep going
Years turn into weeks. How quick they pass. The time is going quickly, the eternity is waiting. I was very glad, when I heard this advice: "If you hear the dogs, keep going. If you see the fiery torches in the forest, keep going. If there's shouting after you, keep going. Do not ever stop. Keep going. If you want a taste of freedom, keep going". If you want a life...
Last week
I don’t feel better because of leaving Sheffield. I’m not certain should I go or should I stay here. When I was in Poland, I was happy. When I lived in Kazakhstan, I was happy too. I have been living here for 8 months and I still happy. If I stayed in the UK, I would live in Sheffield. It’s not matters where I live. My life is perfect when I do what God wants for...
“You will be hugely missed”
Celebratory meal In the evening was a party at restaurant Noodle Doodle. Why there? Joseph, leader our group said me that Malesia food is closer to Kazakh food. It was very kind of him. This evening was wonderful. There were 24 people. I was embarrassed and astonished when I'm aware that this short period in Sheffield has been brought so a lot of good friends. I'm...
Love is approaching
"But the one to whom little is forgiven, loves little". (Lk 7.47). That's truth. The love grows up if your sins often are forgiven. I go to confess every two weeks, sometimes three. I have been notice when I do it regular, my love is stronger and stronger. Spring is approaching when day is longer and longer. Love is approaching when my sins are forgiven more and more.
