Our Gospel for Nov 18. The Lament for Jerusalem.

Luke 19:41-44
As Jesus drew near Jerusalem, he saw the city and wept over it, saying,
“If this day you only knew what makes for peace– but now it is hidden from your eyes.
For the days are coming upon you when your enemies will raise a palisade  against you; they will encircle you and hem  you in on all sides. They will smash you to  the ground and your children within you, and they will not leave one stone upon  another within you because you did not  recognize the time of your visitation.”

Pananangis para sa Jerusalem

Luke 19:41-44
Nang siya ay nakalapit at nakita ang lungsod,  iniyakan niya ito. Sinabi niya: Kung  nalalaman mo, maging ikaw, kahit man lang sa araw mong ito, ang mga bagay na para sa iyong kapayapaan. Ngunit ngayon sila ay natago sa  iyong mga paningin. Ito ay sapagkat darating sa iyo ang mga araw na ang mga kaaway mo ay maglalagay ng bambang sa palibot mo. Papalibutan ka nila at kukubkubin ka nila sa bawat panig. Ikaw ay papataging kapantay ng  lupa kasama ng iyong mga anak. Walang batong maiiwan na nakapatong sa isang bato sapagkat hindi mo binigyang pansin ang panahon ng pagdating ng Diyos sa inyo.

Nobody's perfect. Each of us experience the same frustrations, problems, concerns and what have you's but each on different level. On a scale of 1 to 10, some people experience 5, some 10 and some are below 5 or very mild. I believe this is because of the way we handle these trials and of our perception about these things.

Would you agree that if you have God with you on all your decisions, solving your problems will be much easier than those who trust only on themselves?

Actually I read this in the bible but sorry I couldn't find the exact verse and share it with you. It says that Godless man suffers 7 times more in the face of a problem than those who does not seek help from God.

Isn't this wonderful? I mean when we trust God to solve our problems, it's 7 times more lighter.

Let's put our trust to the Lord and he will handle our cares carefully. Smile. God is on your side.

Good morning and God bless you all!
