Luke 6: 36-38

Date posted: March 1, 2021

Let us all remember that we are in the Holy Presence of God.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

 

 Luke 6: 36-38
Jesus said to his disciples: “Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. Stop judging and you will not be judged. Stop
condemning and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven. Give and gifts will be given to you; a
good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap. For the measure with
which you measure will in return be measured out to you.”

Reflection
The Gospel emphasizes that being merciful is one of the outstanding virtues of God, which we are upheld to embody.
In our life, there would be times that there are people who will be ungrateful and unkind, however, we must strive to
treat them with compassion and grace, as God has done to us. Jesus’ unconditional love, calls for us to reciprocate
with our own in every aspect of our everyday existence. Do I forgive my debtors easily, or do I allow rage and
bitterness to build in my heart?

 

Lasallian Guiding Principle
LGP states that, Zeal is… “a passionate commitment to realize God’s will…” As Lasallians, we are called to share and
cultivate our knowledge and expertise for the collective benefit of our community. There will be moments where we
might be down and apprehensive because it didn't work out like we had planned, but we should not be disheartened;
instead, we should take a moment to assess and concentrate on our goals, and use the encounter as a means to find
our personal focus again. Let us allow ourselves to do great things for others and our community.

MISSION PRAYER 2021 Year of Missio Ad Gentes CBCP
God, our loving Father, You sent your Son into the world to proclaim the Good News of Salvation to all: to
sinners, the poor, oppressed, the sick, the abandoned and neglected. He gave His life on the Cross for us and
rose again to new life to redeem us and reconcile us with you. You sent Your Holy Spirit to the Apostles to
continue the work of Your Son and to lead all to salvation. We thank you, Father, for bringing us from darkness
into light. Through Your loving plan, 500 years ago, missionaries came to our land to proclaim the Gospel of
Jesus, Your Son, to our ancestors that made us Your people and the Church. The gift of faith has accompanied
us through both darkness and lights, defeats and victories of our history as Your people. Our faith has become
for us true light that shines in the darkness. Renew in us the grace of your Spirit that impels us to be witnesses
of Jesus, Your Son, to a world broken by greed, violence, injustice, sickness and suffering. May our faith bring
us to unity as your children to care for and love one another. May the Holy Spirit empower us to be proclaimers
of the Good News to our brothers and sisters in Asia and to all nations. Give us the sincere desire to help
others to come to faith in the Lord Jesus to share in Your joy and life. May the Blessed Mother, the Star of
Evangelization, accompany us and pray for us as we live and share our faith with others. May our strong love
and devotion to her as our Mahal na Ina form us to be true disciples and witnesses of Jesus to all, always
ready to be sent, and to be obedient to whatever Jesus asks of us. We ask this through Jesus Christ, Your
Son, who lives and and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen.
St. John Baptist de La Salle, pray for us.
St. Miguel Febres Cordero, pray for us.
Live Jesus in our hearts, forever!
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
