Love transcends

Amor Vincit Omnia
 

Reflection:

 

After my graduation in High School my mother asked me what courses do I like to take up and she added if ever I want to become a priest they will brought me in the seminary ( my mom got that idea because I once an altar boy during my Elementary years). As I responded to what she said, I simply said No! And I told her that what I want, “I want to become a pilot someday”. Upon hearing my desire, mom told me that they don’t have enough money for my course. My father is just a simple employee of BOHECO 1, his compensation is just enough to sustain us in our daily needs. But their inevitable love for us prevails as they sent me to college not that pilot thing but at least related to an aircraft. Moreover, they keep on telling me to be good and finish my study because being in college involve a lot of money. It’s a great wager! but still they dare because they love us so much their children.

 

Parents did everything not for their own sake but for their children. it's a typical Filipino settings to see that parent are in debts just to sustain their children in school. How heroic and noble is their deeds for they love their children so much. They will do everything unconditionally for their love for us is authentic and nothing could compare of. Parents did  a lot of sacrifices to see their children happy  and secure. In the same manner, our Father in Heaven love us so much beyond compare. "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him" (John 3:17). This shows how God made the initiative to save us and to draw us back to him even to the extent that He sent His only Son as a Sacrifice just for us sinners. What a great Love for us to ponder about. Just imagine if God doesn't love us sinners. What would happen to us mankind? Since from the very first man enter into this world had been engaged already into sin. How defiant are we in His will for we always broke His heart because of our sin. However, God never abandoned us for  He continue to Love us and invite us to share His happiness always. Amen!
