The Lord Is My Chef Daily Recipe for the Soul by Fr. Nicanor F. Lalog II Tuesday in the Twenty-third Week of Ordinary Time, Year I, 12 September 2023 Colossians 2:6-15 <*((((>< + ><))))*> Luke 6:12-19
Father, our loving God, I am getting old; there is indeed a gap not only in our age but also in many other things. Yet, it is so amazing that even in this modern age of great technological advances me and my generation could not keep up much less even learn nor understand, I am so grateful to you loving Father that people still these days thirst for you, yearn for you, search for you. In my dealings with people these days, both young and old alike, they still prefer meaning in life than just mere material pursuits; more people still find themselves in moral dilemmas, a sign they still have moral fiber, a conscience bothered by evil and sin.
Help us, dear Father, to walk in Jesus Christ, be rooted in him and be built upon him so as not to be captivated with empty, seductive philosophy afflicting even some churchmen according to the tradition of men and elemental powers of the world not according to Christ (Colossians 2:6-8).
May we remain true to your teachings and to your very person, Lord Jesus so as not to mislead others to modern fads and trends because we have tried and tested, you never go out of style; you are always "in" because you dwell in each of us, truly "hip" because you are forever true. Amen.
