JESUS CHRIST IS THE KING OF PEACE
In our contemporary world, we
see there are so many events which occur. These events which we experience;
they bring tension to the world. The world is not in Peace because of war and
injustice; One nation rises against the other nation. There is no fear of the
Lord; Now the Prophetic massage from the book of Isaiah, Son of Amoz, invites
each and every one to come and climb the Lord’s Mountain; Isaiah predicts the
coming of Messiah who will bring Peace into the world. He is the one who will
judge between the nations. In fact, no war again as long as Christ is in us.
What is needed for us is to walk in his light with faith so that we can be
saved by Him.
FAITH BRING SALVATION
However, in the Gospel the
evangelist Mathew, gives us an example of the centurion whose servants is lying
at home paralyzed, suffering dreadfully. But the centurion who is the chief
commander had the total trust in Christ. It is because of his prudent. Thus, he
was able to express his trust to Jesus and realizing that he is nothing before
the LORD; Despite of his high position. Our father founder Saint Anthony Mary
Claret in his Auto.383, He prayed for the zeal which is discreet and prudent in
order that he may do everything in faith. What we learn here is that total
faith toward Christ brings salvation. Therefore, during this time of advent let
us pray for the virtue prudent and faith so that Christ may be born in our
hearts. We should always learn from the centurion who was prudent enough and
able to say LORD only say the word and My servant shall be healed.
