Christ the Universal King

One of the hardest things to do as a Christian is to let go. We celebrate the Solemnity of Jesus Christ the Universal King today. To allow Christ to be king means that we will have to let go of our wilfulness and allow Christ to lead. The Lord usually leads us through unfamiliar territory in our journey of faith. Fear of the unknown is disturbing indeed. However we must let go of our own insecurities to trust the Lord. If we don't let go, we won't be able to cling on to the Lord. Christ is our King. We should know that we are secure with Him. Christ is King!! He is who we should depend on. Amen.

Final Year Farewell Function

As I write this, the seminary community is celebrating the Farewell Function of the Final Year students. Each of the Final Years have a pacifier in his mouth so that they would not be able to vocalize their protests as they are being verbally roasted by their junior brothers. Rather than sharing deep dark secrets, the junior brothers share their experiences of encountering their most senior brothers. Their sharings are not only encouraging but also very inspiring. There are stories of appreciation as well as messages of thanks.
