Saint Isidore is known to be the writer of a big encyclopaedia of all human knowledge (at his time). This project lead him to be the patron of the Internet. I remember the «Error 404 page not found» and how his Feast Date is 4/04 (or 4/04 if you're in the US). He is also known to be fighting against Arianism, and the conversion of the Visigoths from it. He was made archbishop of Seville after his brother's death. His [then-archbishop] brother was the one who taught and educated him.

10 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2 Make two silver trumpets; you shall make them of hammered work; and you shall use them for summoning the congregation, and for breaking camp. 3 When both are blown, the whole congregation shall assemble before you at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 4 But if only one is blown, then the leaders, the heads of the tribes of Israel, shall assemble before you. 5 When you blow an alarm, the camps on the east side shall set out; 6 when you blow a second alarm, the camps on the south side shall set out. An alarm is to be blown whenever they are to set out. 7 But when the assembly is to be gathered, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm. 8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; this shall be a perpetual institution for you throughout your generations. 9 When you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, so that you may be remembered before the Lord your God and be saved from your enemies. 10 Also on your days of rejoicing, at your appointed festivals, and at the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt-offerings and over your sacrifices of well-being; they shall serve as a reminder on your behalf before the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.

𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: they shall serve as a reminder on your behalf

Trumpets are loud beings. Trumpets have evolved and are very different from the old ones. This is just like the old testament. But still, their purpose is only one thing, to make a sound that people can hear. The old testament, doesn't mean it has been renewed it is obsolete. The old testament serves as the foundation of Christianity.

Now this is the reflection I want to ask. Have we been trumpets to others lately? Have they remembered God?

The world says otherwise, don't proclaim God, be fearful, nobody would care. These are the thoughts we should avoid, and always proclaim our Go

Proclaiming God's kingdom doesn't make us right, we first have to build ourselves, even if we aren't perfect then. We should never claim that we are great by ourselves because we never are. We are weak humans that even God himself, Jesus, in His humanity called upon the Lord for help. He praised God. He proclaimed God like a trumpet.

The 12 apostles were like trumpets to the gentiles. Like trumpets they are loud and aggressive, but that should be the case because they wanted the faith to spread. But volume and pitch is not enough to make people listen. The words and sounds must have meaning, and heart. The first verse of my favourite bible passage is that, «1 If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal.»

We need to keep in mind these things to spread the Word of God. Saint Francis is quoted to have said, "The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today." Actions speak louder than words.

Yesterday I talked about being silent. Now I want to connect it with today. Let us keep our mouths shut and do. Let us stop speaking but show. Let us stop sharing and feel. Let us learn to hear and be silent.

𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫: «Be not hasty in your utterance and let not your heart be quick to utter a promise in God’s presence. God is in heaven and you are on earth; therefore let your words be few.» Ecclesiastes (Qoheleth) 5:1

Like the lamb presented to the altar of the Cross, silently, let us shout the glory of God in our actions. 𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲.

Lord enthroned above.
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one in three.
Guard our lips and open them to praise You.
Guard our tongue to say grace and blessing.

In the Passion of Christ:
teach us to accept everything with gratitude,
teach us to speak and not complain,
teach us to show more than to speak.
That in the perfection of our actions, our words may be understood, and we may gladly accept the fruits of our labours and temporary suffering. With love, I wish to love You and my Brothers and Sisters, impartially and with great wholesomeness,
Amen.

And may the prayers of Saint Isidore Seville, whom we venerate as patron of the internet, so protect us from the snares that lurks within the World Wide Web. And may he offer up our prayers and works for the greater good and glory of Your name:

CHAPTER 1

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝗲𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗺
1 How solitary sits the city,
once filled with people.
She who was great among the nations
is now like a widow.
Once a princess among the provinces,
now a toiling slave.

2 She weeps incessantly in the night,
her cheeks damp with tears.
She has no one to comfort her
from all her lovers;
Her friends have all betrayed her,
and become her enemies.

3 Judah has gone into exile,
after oppression and harsh labor;
She dwells among the nations,
yet finds no rest:
All her pursuers overtake her
in the narrow straits.

4 The roads to Zion mourn,
empty of pilgrims to her feasts.
All her gateways are desolate,
her priests groan,
Her young women grieve;
her lot is bitter.

5 Her foes have come out on top,
her enemies are secure;
Because the Lord has afflicted her
for her many rebellions.
Her children have gone away,
captive before the foe.

6 From daughter Zion has gone
all her glory:
Her princes have become like rams
that find no pasture.
They have gone off exhausted
before their pursuers.

7 Jerusalem remembers
in days of wretched homelessness,
All the precious things she once had
in days gone by.
But when her people fell into the hands of the foe,
and she had no help,
Her foes looked on and laughed
at her collapse.

8 Jerusalem has sinned grievously,
therefore she has become a mockery;
Those who honored her now demean her,
for they saw her nakedness;
She herself groans out loud,
and turns away.

9 Her uncleanness is on her skirt;
she has no thought of her future.
Her downfall is astonishing,
with no one to comfort her.
“Look, O Lord, at my misery;
how the enemy triumphs!”

10 The foe stretched out his hands
to all her precious things;
She has seen the nations
enter her sanctuary,
Those you forbade to come
into your assembly.

11 All her people groan,
searching for bread;
They give their precious things for food,
to retain the breath of life.

𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: she has no thought of her future.

Jerusalem is known to be the daughter, and the Father is God. I have explained this before, on the sixth day last week. And here is the continuation. Something a father, or any parent fears is to have no future for their child. That is why the father is restless because of his love for his daughter. This text happened in history, when Jerusalem and all the Jews were exiled into Babylon.

The writer was great when they used the term lover. This was because the Israelites went into a spree with the Edomites, Moabites the other pagans that worship other gods. God is a jealous god that is why He is angry at those who partake in idolatry. At God's wrath He spoke that he would not listen to them in their need. Retribution for sin is harder than not sinning. I fear what will happen to me because Israel had suffered a lot.

God is righteous and just. He will do everything accordingly. But above righteousness and justice, God is a man of Love, Compassion, Mercy. I watched a video about the greatest scandal of the Holy Bible and Christianity. It is God's divine mercy and love. When we do good things, it is repaid with good things. But with God, a loving Father to His children; good thing, bad thing, or nothing, we receive God's love whatever it may be. It is a good thing to think about.

But we take it wrongly and continue on our bad habits. So I repeat this again, at the very least, out of gratitude of His Love, when will we follow Him? We are given what is good, in moral conscience should we repay it with our worst? I am guilty of this, but it is not something to be ashamed of. The most important is changing. This is how we can be Christians, by changing our ways, living in the spirit, accepting the cross of living in the world, and loving. Above all we are loving people.

𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫: «13 So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love.» 1 Corinthians 13:13

𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲.

God may Your love reign above all like it did in the death of Your Son. Through the Death of Your Son on the cross may we die also from our sins and leave them. Through the resurrection of Jesus Christ may we rejoice in the coming, and the living, and the dying through which the Hope of what You have promised has now come into the fullness and perfection. Amen.

𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲'𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 is from the letter of Saint Paul to 𝐏𝖍𝖎𝖑𝖊𝖒𝖔𝖓

𝗔𝗱𝗱𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴. 1 Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved and our co-worker, 2 to Apphia our sister, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church at your house. 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴. 4 I give thanks to my God always, remembering you in my prayers, 5 as I hear of the love and the faith you have in the Lord Jesus and for all the holy ones, 6 so that your partnership in the faith may become effective in recognizing every good there is in us that leads to Christ.

𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗢𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗺𝘂𝘀. 7 For I have experienced much joy and encouragement from your love, because the hearts of the holy ones have been refreshed by you, brother. 8 Therefore, although I have the full right in Christ to order you to do what is proper, 9 I rather urge you out of love, being as I am, Paul, an old man, and now also a prisoner for Christ Jesus. 10 I urge you on behalf of my child Onesimus, whose father I have become in my imprisonment, 11 who was once useless to you but is now useful to [both] you and me. 12 I am sending him, that is, my own heart, back to you. 13 I should have liked to retain him for myself, so that he might serve me on your behalf in my imprisonment for the gospel, 14 but I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that the good you do might not be forced but voluntary. 15 Perhaps this is why he was away from you for a while, that you might have him back forever, 16 no longer as a slave but more than a slave, a brother, beloved especially to me, but even more so to you, as a man and in the Lord. 17 So if you regard me as a partner, welcome him as you would me. 18 And if he has done you any injustice or owes you anything, charge it to me. 19 I, Paul, write this in my own hand: I will pay. May I not tell you that you owe me your very self. 20 Yes, brother, may I profit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

21 With trust in your compliance I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say. 22 At the same time prepare a guest room for me, for I hope to be granted to you through your prayers.

𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀. 23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you, 24 as well as Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my co-workers. 25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

It is funny how Saint Paul knew Philemon would say yes, and even if he didn't say yes he already has the responsibility of taking chare of Onesimus of Byzantium.

The other day, March 5th, I've read about an article explaining the purpose of Saint Joseph to the passion of Christ, since Mary is co-redemptrix. But among the explanation that the writer gave, it was the example of Joseph that gave him part in the Passion of Christ. Saint Thomas wrote that "thus it did not befit His dignity that He should be taught by any man" nor "by the medium of angels". In his explanation, Saint Thomas explained that since He is in full communion, being one divine with God, Jesus cannot be the one to inspire the minds and teach others what He himself lacks.

This is evident with the story of the "Finding of Jesus in the Temple," where at the age of 12 (where 13 is the age of manhood for Jewish tradition), Jesus amazed the synagogue rabbis with His knowledge. It was at this image that Mary was also greatly troubled for losing Jesus. More so could we imagine Joseph whom God had entrusted His Son to. It wasn't even Joseph's son, and he had lost Him.

Now Jesus knows what to do, what His ministry is, what He shall do with it. He even said to His parents, "Do you not know that I should be in my Father's House?" but He still humbled himself and followed His parents. He then grew to be a great person. We could imagine as a child, Jesus knows how to craft the most perfect sculpture. But with the greatest humility of humbling himself to the human flesh, he can't. He still is weak and does not have the strength to work with saw blades and heavy hammers. Jesus being with Saint Joseph, and us having a father-figure in the weakness of our flesh makes us feel like it is alright. I am sure Saint Joseph made him feel alright too.

Now slaves like Onesimus found a father figure in Saint Paul. Though little is known about their relationship, Paul said he had fathered Onesimus while incarcerated. I remember Don Bosco being a father figure to children, especially the children whom were into child labour because child labour was prevalent at his time.

Saint Jean-Baptiste de La Salle, who was: «Moved by the plight of the poor who seemed so 𝘧𝘢𝘳 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘴𝘢𝘭𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 either in this world or the next, he determined to put his own talents and advanced education at the service of the children 𝘰𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘭𝘦𝘧𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘢𝘥𝘭𝘺 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘶𝘱.» (Wikipedia). The teachers, guardians, parents, uncles, grandparents; men, women, or anyone that is a parental figure to us went on a difficult task of raising us and forming us to be loving persons as well.

But I cannot speak for all childhoods. I also would like to acknowledge those maltreated by their own parents, guardians, relatives. You are not what your past is, and we live in the gift of the present now. In a way, the people whom inflicted hurt on us had impacted our lives which I hope is for the better. With all of that, I want to say thank you. And I do encourage everyone to say thank you as well.

This is a scandal in the moral justice of receiving what others owe. But since God is merciful, why not do the loving thing?

𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫: In a special way, let us remember our teachers with Love as they stood by with us as our second parents. Though not all are as perfect as the teacher Jesus Christ, we remember them in a special way as they too made an impact in our lives. 𝐋𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲.

Protect and Preserve our teachers, Lord.
Infuse them with wisdom,
increase their patience,
decrease their pride and obstinacy, sloth and sluggishness,
but overflow within them the love and joy, the fire to effort in one's work.

Help us to strive for Truth, Justice, and Love.
Teach us Your example, O Divine Teacher.
You are the source of all Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge, and Counsel.

And as we students live,
help us to be humble like You had been while You were on earth.
decrease their pride and obstinacy, sloth and sluggishness,
but overflow within them the love and joy, the fire to effort in one's work.

Because we believe, we hope, and we surrender, knowing our labours bear wonderful fruits of salvation. Amen.

Coincidentally, this Wednesday falls on the 13th. I'm not into superstition AHAHA. This year is a Wednesday the 13th, and there is no superstition with that.

In Christianity, Holy Wednesday commemorates the Bargain of Judas by a clandestine spy among the disciples. It is also called Spy Wednesday, or Good Wednesday (in Western Christianity), and Great and Holy Wednesday (in Eastern Christianity).

In Western Christianity many churches of various denominations observe the Tenebrae service on Holy Wednesday.

31 And behold, the Cushite came, and the Cushite said, “Good news for my lord the king! For the Lord has delivered you this day from the hand of all who rose up against you.” 32 The king said to the Cushite, “Is it well with the young man Absalom?” And the Cushite answered, “May the enemies of my lord the king and all who rise up against you for evil be like that young man.” 33 And the king was deeply moved and went up to the chamber over the gate and wept. And as he went, he said, “O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would that I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son!”

𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: my son, my son

This might be the shortest reading this week. This is the shortest, but it is the most fruitful. The story of Absalom and David is very dense and compact with emotion. I don't want to tell the story because I want you readers to read it. This short passage of grief that David showed is already heavy to have reflections.

David in here is not the David with Goliath. They are the same being, same person, but their personality shifted. David (since Goliath) had matured. God who so is full of love, fathered the entirety of creation. In this easter vigil, we will again listen the reading of Exodus. Among the readings, God rejoices over his favoured nation, Israel. But on the other hand, God cries for the death of the soldiers in the sea, for they too are God's children.

In the Passover that we attended, it was explained to us that Judas sat on the seat of honour. The priest, Fr. Chito, explained the meaning behind it, that God continues to extend His hand and care for him, showing him the best, even if Judas Iscariot will come to betray Him after. And that is the message of Spy Wednesday.

Judas is tempted by the devil to betray Jesus. He was the chosen one to fulfill the prophesy and the law. Jesus continued to show His love for him even if he would betray him. Now at the end of the Passover celebration, there was a line in the Holy Gospels that says, «Satan entered him,» or the «evil spirit entered him.» Which was not a choice but the effect of Sin.

When we succumb to temptation, we allow ourselves to be touched and used by the Devil. And with each sins that we do, we destroy ourselves every step of the way. Judas was a traitor because he was given the chance to say no to the pieces of money handed to him. Now that he became a faithful advocate of the devil, Judas was then the one used by God to fulfill the suffering and death; the passion of Christ.

Yesterday, I had a bad headache, apart from that I was emotionless. I felt no love, no care, no joy. I only felt emptiness, meaninglessness, lost, doubt, and despair. This heart of mine was cold, stony, and locked. I felt so much grieve that I didn't want to continue yesterday's Daily. But still I did, amidst the coldness of my heart, and the pains my migraine gave me. As I write, I forget the migraine, and found joy again. Remembering what its cause is, I remember it is my succumbing to the lascivious arms of temptation.

We all sin everyday, these sins are venial. Some sins are not venial and grave. Each sin has its effect. David's loss of Absalom is a result of his sin with Bathsheba wife of Uriah. What made Judas' sin much worse is his inability to accept defeat and have the strength to ask forgiveness from the risen Christ.

We looked back again, as our lesson in Classic Literature, the novel of Chinua Achebe, Things Fall Apart. Remembering Okonkwo (I wouldn't give much more spoilers to it) I wonder if it was the same motive for the act. That Judas and Okonkwo feared to be part of their group, and found no hope for his sin. More so might have they thought that nobody had loved them.

But this is a lesson for all of us sinners alike. We are sinners but our God who loved us sent His begotten and favoured Son, whom for our salvation became the ultimate Passover lamb. Even if we sinned, we are loved by God. And our sins doesn't mean the end for us, it means that God has more to do in us, and we will experience more of God in us throughout our lives.

And those around us who will be sad. Those around us, our friends. We would miss out on a lot of things in the world. And suicide would be running away from your problems. It would not solve your problems, rather it would create much bigger ones to those around you. And having a hard time in life doesn't mean it is the end. Everyone too is having a hard time, and the best thing we can do is support each other through.

Please contact the Suicide Prevention hotlines if you are feeling bad.
I cannot list down all the suicide hotlines of all the world, but these links are all the one that I found having many countries listed.

𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫: In a special way, let us pray for all the sinners in the world.

God who wept at the death of Your children, do guide their souls to heaven. They too are our siblings through Christ. Many of them Lord, as living people in this world, don't realize the vanity of the pleasures of the world. More so I ask Your divine power to strengthen and lead them more. I ask that You, the Divine Shepherd, to carry each sinning lamb and sheep because our own feet have failed us, like our flesh succumbing into temptation. Clear our minds to see the goodness, free us from the darkness of despair. Shine forth Your light that we celebrate in the resurrection. All of this we ask in the Mighty name of Jesus, God who was man, who with the Father and the Holy Spirit make up the everlasting Triunity. Amen.
