About

Did you know that Christmas means the Mass of Christ? Christ + Mass = Christmas.

We are all called to be witnesses of Christ. While some do this by spreading the word, others do it through their actions. As a computer professional, I choose to share my faith through this blog.

During last Sunday's Mass, the priest encouraged us to read the scriptures, meditate on them, and share our reflections. This blog is my way of fulfilling that suggestion. Here’s why I decided to start it:

  1. I've had this idea for a while, and now I've decided to bring it to life.
  2. It aligns with Fr. Jamie's suggestion.
  3. It motivates me to keep my readings up-to-date.
  4. It helps me grow spiritually.
  5. Last, but definitely not least, it helps YOU grow as well.

I hope this blog helps you achieve your spiritual goals. I also hope it helps you better understand who Jesus WAS, IS, and WILL BE in our lives.
