Daily Bible Reflections - June 05, 2012


A COMPLETE MAN
 
So Jesus said, “Well, then, pay to the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor, and pay to God what belongs to God.” And they were amazed at Jesus. – Mark 12:17
 
I served in a youth camp for 10 to 12-year-old kids one summer. The camp was turning out great until it started to rain right before dinner.
Because of the continuous downpour, they decided that nobody would sleep in the tents. Campers would occupy two big cottages — one for the boys and the otherfor the girls. The downpour became stronger as each team moved towards the cottages. Thunder and lightning added to the agitation of the young campers.
I decided to check both cottages when everyone had moved in. While some were already asleep at the girls’  cottage, a lot were praying hard that the rains would stop. But the boys’ cottage was a different scene. It was a party complete with singing, dancing and blinking flashlights! It made me smile.
Men and women are really different and the signs are evident even at preadolescence.
In the same way, the government and the Church are different. Our service for our country is different from our service to God. We should prioritize serving God but should also be available for our country.Alvin Fabella (alvinfabella@yahoo.com)

REFLECTION:
“Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good.” (Titus 3:1)
 
Lord, I want to serve You. I also want to, serve my country. May I be able to serve You through my ministries and may these allow others to feel Your love for them.
 
St. Boniface, bishop and martyr, pray for us.
