Daily Bible Reflections - April 2, 2012


“Back Off!”
 
“Here is my servant, whom I strengthen.” – Isaiah 42:1
 
“Back off!” Piurie heard a male voice from out of nowhere. It was Saturday night. She was alone editing the video to launch the Caring Groups at our Feast the next day. This was the last incident in a string of spiritual harassments that our Media Ministry experienced that week.
Osy, who conceptualized the presentation, figured in a three-vehicle smash-up. My monitor, which was working fine, suddenly flat-lined. Our videographers with their high-tech cameras and our talent were unavailable. One member was hospitalized due to asthma and severe back pains.
The thought that we were being attacked by evil forces to prevent the video from being used to harvest souls was chilling. But God provided and God protected. Tin, usually busy, was free to make the presentation. She roped in her friend, Piurie, to volunteer. Mike was able to borrow a camera. AJ from the youth ministry agreed to do the funny poses we needed to shoot.
When we asked for prayers, we were assured that God had sent His angels to cover us. Backed by the strength of God’s forces, it was our turn to say to the devil, “Back off, we’re showing this!” And we did. Lella Santiago (mirellasantiago@yahoo.com)

REFLECTION:
Do we allow dark forces to prevent us from doing God’s work? Remember that God is mightier than any force in the universe.
 
Lord, protect us from the evil that tries to prevent us from harvesting souls for Your kingdom.
 
St. Francis of Paola, hermit, pray for us.
