A longing heart...



I just feel the pressure of anxiety and uncertainty - the more I realize the importance of God - Christ risen. If only I can have a little piece of shalom - the peace Christ promised and 'caritas' - His love.

A heart longing ...

- Christus
" VATICAN CITY, APRIL 16, 2006 (Zenit.org).- Benedict XVI made an Easter plea for peace in the name of the resurrection of Jesus, particularly in Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.

After celebrating Easter Mass today, and before imparting the blessing "urbi et orbi" (to the city of Rome and the world), the Pope read a message for "this modern age marked by anxiety and uncertainty."

The Holy Father said: "Jesus is risen, and he gives us peace; he himself is peace. For this reason the Church repeats insistently: 'Christ is risen -- "Christós anésti."' Let the people of the third millennium not be afraid to open their hearts to him.

"His Gospel totally quenches the thirst for peace and happiness that is found in every human heart. Christ is now alive and he walks with us. What an immense mystery of love!"

"Christ is risen because God is love," The Pontiff said in Latin at the end of his message. "'Christus resurrexit, quia Deus caritas est!' Alleluia!" "

Quotes from the movie 'Interstellar' - to ponder

We’ve always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible. And we count these moments. These moments when we dare to aim higher, to break barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known. We count these moments as our proudest achievements. But we lost all that. Or perhaps we’ve just forgotten that we are still pioneers. And we’ve barely begun. And that our greatest accomplishments cannot be behind us, because our destiny lies above us.” - Cooper ===================  “Maybe we’ve spent too long trying to figure all this out with theory. Love is the one thing that transcends time and space.” - Amelia Brand ==================== “Murphy’s law doesn’t mean that something bad will happen. It means that whatever can happen, will happen.” - Cooper ================= Cooper: You’re a scientist, Brand. Brand: So listen to me when I say love isn’t something that we invented. It’s observable. Powerful. It has to mean something. Cooper:

B. I. A. K - Brother I Am kONFUSED ( Bishop Prays for Obama's Conversion )

The majority of the Americans voted for an outspoken and charismatic leader in Obama who claims to be a Christian by faith but supports death in all his belief. Christ came to give us life and life in fullness but here we have a leader who is against life. I am not a fanatic and I don’t want to sound like a fanatic. But the real issues today are not the symptoms we see such as AIDS, poverty in third world nations and recession in the developed & developing nations, civil war or what not. I used the word the symptoms because the real issues are more on the principles and beliefs that we have as our guiding pillars. If we believe in things which leads to moral degradation and death then what it produces only will lead to chaos and total callousness ending in death.   I am not suggesting that one should ever go against the elected representative of people – the leader but one can strive to represent the truth in the right perspective in right forums in a more amicable way whic
