I urge you now to live the life to which God called you. Always be humble, gentle, and patient, accepting each other in love. You are joined together with peace through the Spirit, so make every effort to continue together in this way.
Ephesians 4:1-3 Do you remember the first time you fell in love? You can talk on the phone with that person you fell in love with for hours and never get tired. Giving special gifts and finding ways to see to it that your presence in that special person’s life was always felt. You’re inseparable and just can’t get enough of each other for you are in love! …Do you remember?

“Now the works of the flesh are obvious: immortality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, fury, acts of selfishness, dissensions, factions, occasions of envy, drinking bouts, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:19-21 I can’t seem to thank God enough for His goodness for bringing His community of believers to our family ever since we moved to Tampa, with the CFC Community and our Parish community; I can truly say that God is present in our lives in spite lives challenges come in abundance at times, but we will never ever doubt His works. It’s a wonderful feeling to have Godly people around, most especially during trying times. Let’s strive to always proclaim the gospel and build Christ communities until the world can be influenced once again as a world of order, through the love of God where patience, love, forgiveness, caring and giving exists. Only in God’s community by which practices His ways you can find this. Aren’t you tired of mean and impatient people and their self centered approach? Stay solid with God’s foundation and the course He’s given to all of us and we have a great chance to live in a better world, most especially for the new and the coming generations in which this legacy must live on. If not, if you’ll pay attention, the culture in which most of us live will lead to destruction versus a greater life. We can no longer live life with God on the sideline; we need Him and His words in the center of all that we do and now! “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
John 8:12

Two sparrows cost only a penny, but not even one of them can die without your Father's knowing it. God even knows how many hairs are on your head. So don't be afraid. You are worth much more than many sparrows.

Never get tired of giving no matter what, God loves givers. Remember St. Francis of Assisi quotes, “For it is in giving that we receive.” A person with a giving heart will always be blessed seven hundred folds. Some of us may say that I’ve been giving but where is the return of seven hundred folds? We must be patient for it will come in God’s time. When you give from the heart, truly meaning to help others most especially when you have so little to give, God sees your heart and your intention and He will bless it. What God does not want is giving for the purpose of self glorification. Have you given with the sole intention of self gain? “When you give alms, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets to win the praise of others. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing, so that your alms giving may be secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.”
Matthew 6:2-4
