Change and Transformation

The Lord's Ascension

World Communications Day

When we think of our lives today, our life is a series of transformations.

 I hope some of you have that practice personal journal writings on a daily basis. People who have that practice at the end of the day, you can recall from 6 AM and when you write down your daily masses in one page or two pages; for the moment when you read that will be meaningless.

After a few days, if you read it once again, maybe two times, you will see the masses are so beautiful. When you think of Change and transformations? Change actually can be two ways. It can be physical change or spiritual change. It can be related to the form of growth.

Change is anything that evovles from. To Jesus during in his lifetime, he gives the masses to his disciples. And the process is that he is coming from God and the relation is God within him. That is through stipulations and transformation into the masses.

How do the disciples feel now that Jesus in no more physically present? How would they came across the masses of Jesus out there in the Gospel like there something secured in the institutions? The blog there another word would be envelop. Enveloped already or covered no more any gifts. Like inside to the feeling is no more hope. They can not feel. They can not see Jesus anymore and the masses are frustrating and the Gospel reading Jesus. They have to realize, how they would come to the goal of Jesus?

That is through the spirit. The spirit is the light. And the spirit is endless. That is why you speak of the proclamation of the Gospel or evangelization, you tell of the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus is focusing on the power of the Holy Spirit. To Jesus, his presence, past and present is the  Jesus is presence to the power of the Holy Spirit     and Jesus is absent because they could not see him physically  so that is their understanding.

And they proceed. And they grow. And they wait. When they come across of the works of the bishops. Sometimes we talk of re-evangelization.

Now, I am proclaiming. I am re-evangelizing you because what had taken in our life's situation according to our perceptions, understanding and faith. Sometimes we are happy when we think of Jesus' ascension.

You have the tripulation that Jesus is alive. And only through that you will understand Jesus.  History tells us that Jesus goes to the world.

We have to proclaim. I always prefer to please proclaim and hope if you are at home with your children, with your husband, wife, kids. We feel that God is good.

Just a couple of days, I cane across with a Bangladeshi newspaper in the Internet. and I came across somebody; he is a brother, he tell me of the problems inside the coffin.  And all of a sudden, somebody notices that the feast, is a big different and they bring the image of the _________. This is resurrection.

And they come across the resurrrection of the body. The resurrrection  of the body, my brothers and sisters they say the resurrection is the right of the masses. I just wanna ask out, we come out with so many problems pray also and reflect at this times. If you have faith, you will come or something happens, when you are feeling ill praise God.

The Gospel reminds that signs and symbols that we come across we feel God.  That is the beginning of my sharing. Personal judgement, I even sometimes, my personal intentions   if not yet happened to me that is why our perception and understanding moves us gradually to that goal.

So what do we do? We believe in God's resurrection and Christ's Ascension. And his medium through his Father. He understands our sins and lifetime. That is why the Second Reading remind us Jesus is very very powerful.  He processes all kinds of problems. And God realizes his majesty. That is why we also feel a little bit happy hope that we are truly happy and serving in God.

Today also we celebrate media. Media is a powerful tool if we browse the chaneels there are proclamations.
