[JOYnet] GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY, GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL
The first day of class our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being. She said, Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I'm eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug? I laughed and enthusiastically responded, Of course you may! And she gave me a giant squeeze. Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age? I asked. She jokingly replied, I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of children, and then retire and travel. No seriously, I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one! she told me. After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milkshake. We became instant friends. Everyday for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always mesmerized listening to this time machine as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up. At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I'll never forget what she taught us.. She was introduced and stepped up to the podium. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped all of her 3 x 5 note cards. Frustrated, and a little embarrassed, she leaned into the microphone and simply said, I'm sorry I'm so jittery. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me! I'll never get my speech back in order, so let me just tell you what I know. As we laughed she cleared her throat and began We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor everyday. You've got to have dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people alking around who are dead and don't even know it! There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don't do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old. If I am eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The elderly rarely have regrets for the things we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets. She concluded her speech singing The Rose. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics. At the year's end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation, Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in tribute to the wonderful woman who taught by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be. hen you finish reading this, please send this peaceful word of advice to your friends and family. They'll really enjoy it! These words have been passed along in loving memory of ROSE. REMEMBER, GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY, GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL. Tonight, before you go to bed, give your problems to God. He will be up all night anyway.

Re:_[JOYnet]_A_WORD_AGAINST_\'WAR__ANACT_ OF SIN\'
Dear friends, I was just wondering; Do we really need this discussion on war? Or do we need to concern ourselves on who is the sinner? Bush or Saddam??? Would it not be enough, if we just focus our war concerns on the innocent suffering humanity and the consequences this war will lead to??? After all it is always wise and advisable to avoid topics of discussions leading to controversies and war of words, which will not spiritually uplift anyone; on this joynet. why cant we have healthy, spiritually and morally benefitting discussions instead? While we continue praying for the world leaders, and the world peace. Please no hard feelings; but this is what i really personally feel. love, anita kuwait. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[JOYnet] War, Bush and Christianity: Some Musings
Friends, The world looks on in agony as the invasion forces of US-British coalition inflict heavy damage and destruction on Iraq and uncountable sufferings on the innocent people there. The Coalition has engaged in this unjust conflict in the face of strident protests from the vast majority among the community of nations, in particular the Holy See. A huge number of their felow countrymen are oppoed to war as evident from Michael Moore's Oscar acceptance speech today ( 03/23/03). President Bush constantly asserts that the war is waged to bring about democracy and prosperity to Iraq, and bring about an end to the brutal regime of Saddam Hussein.Saddam Hussein, no doubt, is a dictator who has committed many acts of violence. But does the US have any moral mandate to remove him.? Consider this: The US is the one force, that forms the cornerstone of support to the Musharraf regime, which has all the weapons of mass destruction in its arsenal. The possibility that terrorists may take over the WMD's is very real. The US has tried and keeps on trying to topple the democracy of Venezuela and install a puppet regime of its liking there. The only crime of Hugo Chavez is that he wants a fair share of the revenues oil multinationals extract from his country, to better the lot of the poor. In the past US has destroyed democracies around the world and installed brutal regimes supporting US business interests. Pinochet of Chile, Peron of Argentina, Marcos of Philippines, Duvalier of Haiti, Batista of Cuba..the list goes on. The US committed atrocities of the worst kind and used chemical and biological weapons in Vietnam; even today the people suffer from the aftereffects. US forces massacared undefended women, children and old people, around 300 in number, in the Vietnamese village of My Lai. This was brought to light only because journalists were at hand. Many similar incidents went unreported. Nothing needs be said about the US support to Israel as it violates human rights with impunity in contravention to many a resolution of the UN security council. President Bush often invokes his Christian faith, and publically beseech God to help him with his plans. This Christianity has nothing to do with Christ. The faith of Bush is nothing but the Gospel of Prosperity, expounded by Benny Hinn and his ilk. A gospel which states that the rich are the blessed and the poor are the wretched. To increse your blessings, try to grow richer, and despise the accursed wretched. Nothing can be further from the truth. See what the scripture says: Listen, my dear brothers: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him.( Jam 2:5) 1Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. 2Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 4Look! The wages you failed to pay the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 5You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.[1] 6You have condemned and murdered innocent men, who were not opposing you .( Jam 5:1-5) ( A very apt passage for Bush and his cohorts). The Church always teaches that the rich ought always be aware that the riches are entrusted to them for the common good of all mankind. They should be thankful to the One who gave them the privilage to act as stewards of His bounty, and distribute what they have in excess of their needs among their poor brothers. The Holy See has condemned the invasion unequivocally. Our Holy Father has exhorted all to pray for those threatened by war. As Christians it is incumbent upon us to oppose this most unjustified and unilateral invasion in the most overt manners. Just prayers, in my opinion is not enough. A courageous public statement of what we believe in and what we stand for is needed when the situation calls for it. Remember St. Maximillian Kolbe and St. Edith Stein, (St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross)two of the greatest martyr saints of the past century? May they serve as models to us when we say out loudly that we have no part in Mr.Bush's concept of Christianity which is almost akin to Mr.Saddam Hussein's concept of democracy.

[JOYnet] What a RESCUE AT SEA... ???
Hi all, Praise the LordCheck out this Good story..Fowarded by my friend.. I hope this story ministers to our hearts to be quick to give and serve because in doing so we will receive much more than we have ever given before. RESCUE AT SEA... Years ago, in a small fishing village in Holland, a young boy taught the world about the rewards of unselfish service. Because the entire village revolved around the fishing industry, a volunteer rescue team was needed in cases of emergency. One night the winds raged, the clouds burst and a gale force storm capsized a fishing boat at sea. Stranded and in trouble, the crew sent out the S.O.S. The captain of the rescue rowboat team sounded the alarm and the villagers assembled in the town square overlooking the bay. While the team launched their rowboat and fought their way through the wild waves, the villagers waited restlessly on the beach, holding lanterns to light the way back. An hour later, the rescue boat reappeared through the fog and the cheering villagers ran to greet them. Falling exhausted on the sand, the volunteers reported that the rescue boat could not hold any more passengers and they had to leave one man behind. Even one more passenger would have surely capsized the rescue boat and all would have been lost. Frantically, the captain called for another volunteer team to go after the lone survivor. Sixteen-year-old Hans stepped forward. His mother grabbed his arm, pleading, Please don't go. Your father died in a shipwreck 10 years ago and your older brother, Paul, has been lost at sea for three weeks. Hans, you are all I have left. Hans replied, Mother, I have to go. What if everyone said, 'I can't go, let someone else do it?' Mother, this time I have to do my duty. When the call for service comes, we all need to take our turn and do our part. Hans kissed his mother, joined the team and disappeared into the night. Another hour passed, which seemed to Hans' mother like an eternity. Finally, the rescue boat darted through the fog with Hans standing up in the bow. Cupping his hands, the captain called, Did you find the lost man? Barely able to contain himself, Hans excitedly yelled back, Yes, we found him. Tell my mother it's my older brother, Paul! Author Unknown There are many people in this world that are only interested in self gain and self recognition. That is a shame because they are going to miss God's best for their life. It is important that we remember that God's ways of blessing are contrary to the world's ways. The Bible says to gain, we must give; to be lifted up, we must be made low; to be the greatest, we must first be the least. Having success God's way will last much longer in our lives and more importantly our success will bring glory and honour to God for His blessings. (Matthew 19:28-30) (Mark 9:35) (2 Corinthians 9:6-8) With Prayers, Sanath Henry(kollam) Jyouth Chennai.

[JOYnet] crying hearts and minds
Dear friends, When this war fear has gripped the kuwaities so tightly over here, it is still heartbreaking to see the emotional turmoil of the mentally ill among whom i work. Each time, i go to work these days, i really feel emotionally drained out at times, looking at the pathetic condition my patients are in. When the warning sirens first blared over kuwait, there was huge confusion and running around, restlessness and even aggression seen in the ward, where the already mentally distrurbed where going through more stress and strain, with the memories of the 1991 war behind them. The next few days saw, the relatives of some of the mentally ill hurrying over, to take their patients home, either on leave or discharge from the hospital. And then, the real drama began; the ward, once which was filled with 18patients, now had only 8 inmates and their condition was more pathetic beyond words. Some of them have seen and experienced the death and disappearance of the loved ones during the previous gulf war. These days, each moment i see them crying, telephoning frantically to all possible relatives to come and take them and yet no one turns up. The feeling of abandanment and unwanted and unloved ness is also very hard to digest, and this often results in aggression, where these people become really hard to manage. At night, they are not able to sleep, because of the nightmares the word saddam' gives them. Some are just glued to the TV, which frightens them even further. Telephoning home provides more frustration than consolation. Some relatives have even left the country leaving their 'burden' behind. It is a real sorry state; and at times we feel even more bad to be the silent helpless spectators in this lifes drama love, anita __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[JOYnet] saint of the day....23RD MARCH
23RD MARCH 2003 ST. TURIBIUS DE MOGROVEJO bishop confessor ( 1538--1606) LIFE: Together with Rose of Lima, Turibius is the first known saint of the New World, serving the Lord in Peru, South America, for 26 years. Born in Spain and educated for the law, he became so brilliant a scholar that he was made professor of law at the University of Salamanca . King Phillip II recognizing his outstanding talents and deep piety, appointed him president of the court of the inquisition at Granada in 1575.Three years later he was ordained to the priesthoodand in 1580 was designated Archbishop of Peru. He began the long and arduous visitation of an immense archdiocese, studying the language, staying two or three days in each place, often with neither bed nor food.It is estimated that he travelled over 50,000 miles , almost always on the foot, everywhere baptizing and confirming natives. He confessed every morning to his chaplain, and celebrated Mass with intense fervor. Among those to whom he gave the Sacrament of Confirmation was St. Rose of Lima, and possibly St. Martin de Porres. After 1590 he had the help of another great missionary, St. Francis Solanus. He also due the foundation of the first American seminary at Lima. His people, though very poor, were sensitive, dreading to accept public charity from others. Turibius solved the problem by helping them anonymously. Comment: The Lord indeed writes straight with crooked lines. Against his will, and from the unlikely springboard of an Inquisition tribunal, this man became the Christlike shepherd of a poor and oppressed people. God gave him the gift of loving others as they needed it. PATRONAGE: Latin American bishops, native rights, Peru REFLECTION: ***Time is not our own !!

[JOYnet] Re: [JYA] AMERICA ON WAR...........AND WE???????
Dear All, I am forwarding the e-mail from Jyothini (an animator of the JY in the USA) as a balanced outlook on the current situation. The debate was on both in the JYA list and the Joy Net. Being Christians, we have established our position which is clearly alongside the Pope John Paul II. What else should we do? For one, we should pray. It is the most powerful weapon we can use. Also, remember that we are not fighting against mere flesh and blood, but against the powers of darkness that dwell in the heavenly regions. In stead of merely protesting against all that is evil, we should be proactive and try to eradicate the root causes, such as injustice etc. We could try to become more just in our behavior and dealings with others and the society. There are thousand and one ways to do that in our lives. Another thing we can do as a group of people who possess a lot of talents and capabilities is to try to evangelize the audio-visual media in all its forms. We could do a lot by creating good music, shows, cartoons, stories, novels, movies, computer games, comic strips, shows etc. and replace the violent and immoral stuff that is abundant in the audio-visual media that promotes violence and immorality in the people, especially the young and the little ones. Yours in Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Kurian Nellikunnel, new Jersey, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear JY's There are many sides to this war. We can debate it as much as we want. We are allowed to have a difference of opinions. As I watch T.V and listen to the news, I am really saddened by the situation also. I remember the first war, I was about 14, it was before I really knew the Lord. I remember my dad, my mom and my sister sitting in front of the T.V. Even though the war was so far away, I felt like it was right outside. I went to the room where we usually pray and sat before the Lord and just cried. This time as my husband watch T.V, I went to Lord, the Lord who offered us peace, at the moment he was born and throughout His Life till the moment he ascended into heaven, the Lord who even today offers us peace and begged him to give us that peace. When I went to India, for college, in 1996, many of my roommates were from Kuwait. They shared with me their experience. I was really shocked. I never knew how much they had to go through. As we sit and debate, our fellow brothers and sisters are hiding and running for the lives. Many families are being separated while we are sleeping. Meanwhile, we are safe and secure, going about our daily business, school, work...etc. I don't know whose side is right. We can only see and hear what is said and shown to us. But our Lord knows the hearts and minds of our leaders. Trust in Him. Please pray for the people of Iraq and neighboring nations. Pray for the soldiers and their families on both sides.

[JOYnet] Sufferings of Jesus
Dear friends, There is some thing for us to meditate during this season of Lent. Yours in Jesus Christ, Fr.Simon Nelli sdb Praise Jesus, The 15 Secret Tortures and Sufferings of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ This devotion is approved and recommended by His Holiness Clement II - 1730 - 1740 . It was revealed to the pious, God-loving Sister Mary Magdalen of the Sancta Clara Order, Franciscan, who lived, died and was beatified in Rome. Jesus fulfilled the wish of this Sister, who desired to ardently know something about the secret sufferings which He endured the night before His death. Jesus said : The Jews considered Me as the most wretched man living on earth, so that is why : 1. They fastened My feet with a rope and dragged Me over the stepping stones of the staircase, down into a filthy, nauseating cellar. 2. They took off My clothing and stung My body with iron joints. 3. They attached a rope around My body and pulled Me on the ground from end to end. 4. They hanged Me on a wooden piece with a slip knot until I slipped out and fell down. Overwhelmed by this torture, I wept bloody tears. 5. They tied Me to a post and pierced My body with various arms. 6. They struck Me with stones and burnt Me with blazing embers and torches. 7. They pierced Me with awls: sharp spears tore My skin, flesh and arteries out of My body. 8. They tied Me to a post and made Me stand barefoot on an incandescent metal sheet. 9. They crowned Me with an iron crown and wrapped My eyes with the dirtiest possible rags. 10. They made Me sit on a chair covered with sharp, pointed nails, causing deep wounds in My body. 11. They poured on My wounds liquid lead and resin and, after this torture, they pressed Me on the nailed chair, so that the nails went deeper and deeper into My flesh. 12. For shame and affliction, they drove needles into the holes of My uprooted beard. They tied my hands behind My back and led Me walking out of prison with strikes and blows. 13. They threw Me upon a cross and attached Me so tightly that I could hardly breathe any more. 14. They threw at My head as I lay on the earth, and they stepped on Me, hurting My breast. Then, taking a thorn from My crown, they drove it into My tongue. 15. They poured into My mouth the most immodest excretions, as they uttered the most infamous expressions about Me. Then, Jesus added, My daughter, I desire that you let everyone know the Fifteen Secret Tortures, in order that everyone of them be honored. Anyone who daily offers Me, with love, one of these sufferings and says with fervor the following prayer, will be rewarded with eternal glory on the day of judgment. Prayer My Lord and My God, it is my unchangeable will to honor you in these Fifteen Secret Torments when You shed Your Precious Blood: as many times as there are grains of sand around the seas, as fruit in the orchards, as leaves on the trees, as flowers in the gardens, as stars in the sky, as angels in Heaven, as creatures on earth. So many thousands of times may you be glorified, praised and honored, O Most love-worthy Lord Jesus Christ - Your Holiest Heart, Your Precious Blood, Your Divine Sacrifice for mankind, the Holiest Sacrament of the Altar, the Most Holy Virgin Mary, the nine glorious choirs of Angels and the Blessed Phalanx of the Saints, from myself and everyone, now and forever, and in the eternal ages. In like manner, I desire, my dear Jesus, to give You thanksgiving, to serve you, to repair and atone for all my ignominies, and to offer You my soul and body as Your possession forever. Likewise, I regret all my sins and beg Your pardon, O my Lord and my God. And I offer You all the merits of Jesus Christ to repair everything, to obtain a happy dying-hour and the deliverance of the souls from Purgatory. This prayer I desire to renew at each hour until my death, O lovable Jesus. Sweet Savior, fortify my resolution and permit not that neither wretched men nor Satan destroy it. Amen. === This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

[JOYnet] Discussion on War
Dear Friends, Our primary objective is to grow and help others to grow in the eyes of the Lord and our fellow beings. As such all our discussions and debates should also be leading us to that objective. All of us read newspapers and watch many TV channels and listen to a number of radio channels and do not need any new information on the current war in Iraq. Let us not waste our valuable time by judging others if the US or Iraq or any body else is a sinner. We are not God to judge. Let us leave it Him. Instead let me suggest a topic for discussion. What do you know about the lenten season? How does it help us? How does it help others? How can we help others by observing this season? You can add further points to the discussion. But be charitable to your Joynet pals. No personal attacks, No sarcastic punches. Being the abodes of the Holy Spirit, pray, discern and write and you will edify your fellow Joynetters. God bless you With love and prayers Joseph Lonth Dubai, UAE === This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.

Re: [JOYnet] Carrying The Cross.... v/s Prosperity Gospel
peace be with you our joynet is always with/for sufferings. benzy chacko has given many very nice letters on sufferings. according to me suffering is the key of heaven Because we must follow Jesus to reach heaven we do judge anybody even if He is Jesus [ with all reverence] according to his deeds, not by His words only. so we should follow His cross to reach heaven,isn't it? dr.jomon,angamaly - Original Message - From: Binu Asokan To: JOYnet Sent: Saturday, March 22, 2003 11:55 AM Subject: RE: [JOYnet] Carrying The Cross v/s Prosperity Gospel Hi Joynetters, Smiju said - But Jesus showed us how to transform our pain into LIFE: by offering it to God. Jesus asked us to pick up that cross of pain and follow him. This enables us to grow spiritually so that we can better serve the needs of others. How beautiful it is !!! St Paul says - Let me not have anything to boast of save the Cross of our Lord Jesus, through whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world. - Gal 6:14 As so many references came on JOYnet regarding Prosperity Gospel, I would like to share my view on that. I used to watch Miracle NET channel which is gaining popularity day by day. I liked it coz of the powerful preaching of the Word of God, which at times did help me. But gradually I began to realize the hidden danger that comes wrapped up in the word of God. I am writing this especially for those in JOYnet who still like these programmes. Whether knowingly or unknowingly, they are preaching that suffering, pains etc. are a curse, and they are never our GOOD GOD's will. I've seen Benny Hinn making fun of Catholic faith referring to its teachings that sufferings can be due to God's will and great blessings can be achieved from it. St. Paul expresses his concern over some churches in his letter to Philippians. Brothers, be united in imitating me. Keep youe eyes fixed on those who act according to the example you have from me. For there are so many people of whom I have often warned you, and I warn you again with tears in my eyes, who behave like enemies of Christ's cross. - Phil 3: 17-18. It makes me happy to be suffering for you now, and in my own body to make up all the hardships that still have to be undergone by Christ for the sake of His body, the Church. - Col 1:24 Yes my dear friends, we do have the privilege to suffer for Jesus His Church. And indeed WE ARE MAKING UP FOR ALL SUFFERINGS JESUS HAVE TO UNDERGO. We being His body can fulfill and complement His sufferings. Hold on to the CROSS tightly.. says Mother Mary to Fr. Stefano Gobbe in one among the series of visions given to him, for the CROSS has always defeated all the attacks of the enemy, and it always will. God bless you all.

May be it's a dysfunctional family, poverty, or unemployment. Whatever it is, each person knows his or her cross, becuase it's usually the thing we try to run away from. We avoid the pain.

[JOYnet] LOVE - UNBOUND UNCOMPROMISED
Praise the Lord Dear brothers and sisters, Let me share with u some of the reflections from a one-day program here in coimbatore. The program started at saturday evening with a session on God's love. It was a beautiful session. One thing that really hit me was about the magnitude and dimension of our father's unconditional love for us. I knew he loved and cared for me, but the price he had to pay, the length he had gone to save me, eventhough i knew, i think i did not think of it much, it just crossed my mind sometimes and that was it, i did not care to think of it much. In the session when Ravi told us that when God the father gave his only begotten son to save whoever believed in Him that Jesus was just another human being with all the limitations that a man had. The only thing that was different was that He knew about the pain he will have to undergo to save us. Now, that was someting i had not given much thought. This really hit me hard. I looked at myself, would i help somebody if i knew, IF I KNEW that it would mean giving off my life? i think it is a BIG NO. Ok may be for those intimate ones, ev! en then it depends on the situation. Then, would i be ready to give my life for a stranger, let us leave the matter of giving life, would i even care to just give my savings for a total stranger, i think i would think more than twice even about that. Do u see how GREAT is His sacrificial love for us, the magnitude of His love is just great, certainly not something that can ever be contained. Then, on sunday, there were two other sessions. It was a very blissful session. Ravi shared with us mainly: Our call and answering the call. Leaving our worldly nets Obeying Him and the result of obedience - the cross. Following HIm The program also helped to look at myself again, to search myself, have i answered to the call. If i have answered, have i left the nets or have i even tried to ask God to show me my nets which i should leave, if i have left my net am i obeying HIm, do i feel the cross of obeying Him, and am i following Him. And this search has helped to find how far i am from being a disciple. As Ravi told i am still in the crowd who came to hear Jesus speaking and receive his grace. Yes, i have received abundant grace from Him all through my life. And i know the magnitude of his sacrificial love, his redeeming love, and his merciful love. Reflecting on these thoughts has helped me to identify the areas that i have to grow and take decisions to make myself a DISCIPLE OF JESUS rather than be one among the crowd. With lots of love and prayers, Always ur brother in Jesus Dencil - With Yahoo!

MY comments on Re:_[JOYnet]_A_WORD_AGAINST_\'WAR__ANACT_ OF SIN\'
Hi Joynetters, It is not our Job to judge who is a sinner and who is not. and it is also not right that we try to pre-empt the reasons and motives behind the attack. Mind u i am calling this an attack and not a war. Because we all have seen a one-sided aggression which cannot be called a war.. but an attack.. Now though it has taken the characteristics of a war. The true motives and reasons for this war are known only to the people who have initiated the war.. George bush is only the representative of that group. so this is not a question of Bush Vs Saddam alone.. It involves a lot many other people also.. Our calling is therefore to pray for wisdom for both sides in this war. and that Mary the Queen of Peace may bring an early and definite end to this whole episode... Let us stop discussing and continue praying.. that would be the most sensible thing to do..

[JOYnet] WAR
Praise the Lord Dear joynetters, There is a war going on. What does it mean to be in a war affected country. Have u wondered. With all that tons of bombs showered upon innocent people, friends like u and me, friends with hopes for tomorrow like u and me, friends with dreams like u and me, brothers, sisters, father, mother, grandparents, kids, neighbours, friends that they love so much very much the same we love our beloved ones, they are now at this moment are in pain. Even when we wake up to another beautiful day and go on our daily activities enjoying ourselves, somebody has lost their someone they love so much, maybe their father, mother, son, daughter, or friends. Dear brothers and sisters, let us pray for those affected by war. Let us pray to our Lord and saviour, the merciful God, the living God to have mercy upon them. Let us find some time for them at least in prayer. Let us pray that God give the light of wisdom to those in power and open their eyes to bring peace. Let us at least say one decade of rosary for our brothers and sisters who are in pain in Iraq. - With Yahoo!

[JOYnet] Re: Temptation-Lenten thought
hi friends, this sun at the Syro Malabar church in Chicago we heard one of the best homilies by Fr. Abraham Vetuvaylil. my ears, eyes, mind and heart were glued to the Spirit speaking thru achan. it is hard to share everything but i would like to mention the thoughts that struck me most. Achan was saying that TEMPTATION has 3 manifestations: 1. the devil brings forth a PROPOSAL to you. (just like he did to Jesus in the desert) 2. your initial reaction to the proposal-- do you take DELIGHT or DISGUST in the proposal. 3. finally your end action in regards to the proposal-- do you ACCEPT or REJECT the proposal. when a person gets tempted he undergoes these 3 aspects. it is not easy to deny/decline tempting offers. however, thru enduring/persevering PRAYER we can be graced with the gift of FAITH which will Spirit guide us to OBEDIENCE to the Lord's will!!! also achan was asking us a question which is one we all can reflect on during the rest of Lent-- what will we accept today--- the APPLE offered by the devil (world's luxuries) or PARADISE offered by our SAVIOR (the heavenly rewards/ the Kingdom)... the answer is not so easy always and we don't always make the right choices in life or act according to what we know to be right--depending on our circumstances/situations.. however again enduring/persevering/consistent prayerlife will lead us to make the RIGHT DECISION in accordance with GOD's WILL for us!!!

[JOYnet] Re: bandaging the wounds of CHRIST (innocence)
Hi friends, this last sun evening, i was blessed to be invited to a birthday prayer gathering at the home of one of our Christeen youths in Chicago. all the JYC were there also and it was wonderful, prayerful fellowship!!! the prayer was conducted in their family room and we all faced the fireplace where on the ledge there was large picture of Jesus with His hands stretched out... you couldn't see the stigmata marks in the palms..i thought i was seeing things on the picture that were not there (hallucinating???).. then my friend Jojo whispers to me, see the bandage? see the bandage on Jesus? i was like oh my goodness he too saw the bandages so they must be there. there were two bandages placed on the palms of Jesus to cover the Crucifixion marks/stigmata... we asked the mom of the house, did you know there are bandages on Jesus. she told us that the birthday boy who was 7 had placed the bandages on Jesus when he was younger b/c he did not want Jesus to bleed or hurt at all and he won't remove them even now! i was totally speechless/dumbfounded/humbled beyond words!!! this little boy cared so much for the pain of Jesus and was willing to go to such an extraordinary measure to care for Jesus' wounds... i wondered how much i was willing to do/ how much i had done to bandage Jesus up? well this little boy's innocence/purity/love has on the one hand put me to shame but on the other hand it has inspired me to do more for the LORD--to help others heal physically, emotionally and spirtually, to forgive and be forgiven--and thus do my little bandaging... how amazing it is to know how the Lord is using such young kids to work for HIS KINGDOM Praise the Lord Luv n Prayers, Bincy :=) CHICAGO _ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail === This mail is generated from JOYnet, a Jesus Youth mailing list.
