EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME AUGUST 4, 2019

EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME PAGE 2 PASTOR’S COLUMN

Dear Community of Our Lady of Perpetual Help,

“All things are vanity! …” Ecclesiastes

It is amazing how we cling to so much in this life. We waste so much of our time on matters that are not important. Let us open our hearts to the voice of God.

“If today you hear His voice … harden not our hearts …” Psalm 90

If we let Him touch our hearts, we will be transformed into new persons that respect others and will learn to use our material things to help others.

“Stop lying to one another …” Colossians

“Take care to guard against all greed … for though one may be rich … one’s life does not consist of possessions …” Luke

Monsignor Lorenzo

DECIMOCTAVO DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO PÁGINA 6 COLUMNA DEL PASTOR Querida Comunidad de Nuestra Señora del Perpetuo Socorro,

“Todas las cosas son vana ilusión …” Eclesiastés

Es sorprendente como nos apegamos a tanto en esta vida. Perdemos casí to- do el tiempo en asuntos que no son importantes. Abramos el corazón a la voz de Dios.

“Ojalá escuchen la voz del Señor … no endurezcan el corazón …” Salmo 90

Si lo dejamos tocar el corazón, seremos transformados en personas nuevas que respetemos a otros y aprenderemos a usar las cosas materiales para ayudar a otros.

“No sigan engañándose unos a otras …” Colosenses

“Eviten toda clase de avaricia … porque la vida del hombre no depende de la abundancia de los bienes posea …” Lucas
