When Adam and Eve sinned by eating the apple in the garden, God told the serpent in the Book of Genesis, “ And I will put enmity between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.” This passage is…

Once I went for a blessing and on my way out, I noticed a building that was dilapidated. I queried why the owners did not take care of the building when commerce and business in the place were booming. The neighbors said that the property ownership was transferred to a son who did not tell…
The Good Shepherd
Many children grew up complaining about their parents. Then eventually, when they had a better grasp of life, they realized all the love, giving, and forgiving of their parents. Once they had children of their own, those who were once children, had the realization as parents – dad was right after all, mom was right…
Grief to Gratitude
All of us have experienced loss in life. All of us have experienced a goodbye in life. All of us have experienced a death in life. As the saying goes, “The deeper the love, the more difficult the goodbye”. When we experience loss, death, and a goodbye in life, it is as if life stood…

Sabbath
To put order in any organization and institution, laws, rules, and regulations are very important. Otherwise, if everyone does what he or she wants, it is going to be chaotic. Somewhere down the road though, we forget why these laws, regulations, and rules were implemented and we just follow them blindly. In the Gospel, the…
