Faith
        Faith is very important for everyone in this world. (Irrespective of your belief)You may have heard the story of a certain village that suffered extreme drought. The villagers were called on evening to the church to pray for rain. Guess what, only one little boy went there with an umbrella! The others did not believe God would send rain. Faith is extremely important for a human. Person we can say many things with faith but we have to do it in action only then will our loving God listen to us.

God
          We know God loves. He sees us we need to do a good thing which pleases God. He knows the intentions of our hearts as we go about making sacrifices reaching out to people and serving them. We can not fool God by meaningless rituals. It would be worse to find fault with what others do in their lives. We must love God. God will love us for our humble, contrite heart. And we must thank God in always.
          “Attitude to gratitude is the best beatitude”.

Good   Leader
        As a religious we are called be humble and good leaders. Many times a question arises in my mind that where are the religious leaders?  This question is often repeated today. Whenever I think about the world. It is same. There is definitely a dearth of quality leaders in the socio-political-religious spheres of life who can make a positive difference to society and make it a better place to live in. Many societies groups, organizations and even nations have fallen apart because of inefficient leaders. Any leader who only works for his or her own well-being and prosperity will soon realize that his or her followers are dwindling in humbler and will soon be overthrown. No leader survives long on selfishness, pride or lie. A leader should provide a vision to follow and be ready to commit him/herself to pursue that vision relentlessly and become models to his/her followers. We know that the most genuine, loving, kind,holy,hard working, committed and never compromising leaders are every-ready even to sacrifice his life for his followers. Jesus is our real leader we need to follow him in our life.

Go       (Mt 8:32)
          The word “Go” may seem to be very simple. But it has a different meanings when said in different situation.  We may often find ourselves in situations where someone has caused us hurt or harm in some way or the other. If we don’t turn to the lord for help, our unhappy thoughts could pester us and become an occasion for the devil to harass us with anger, guilt and fear.
        But our Lord Jesus can crush these thoughts with one word “ Go” (Mt 8:32). He can calm our minds, bring peace and even show us the way to forgiveness. Jesus has the power to teach us how to think, so that we are no tossed around by our emotions.
