An avalanche of news comes to us every day, but we need to reflect on what they have caused us<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

When we turn on the TV news or open a web page, we hear about corruption, read about schemes and more schemes involving police and government agencies, persons manipulating, killing to achieve their own interest.<\/span> Could it be that the world really only woes happening?<\/span> Is there still good news?<\/span> Where was God before this chaos?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Where<\/p>\n

It is true that man distances himself from God and, therefore, many are distorted – we can not overlook this.<\/span> However, it is even more certain that the Lord continues to be good, and there are many people struggling to do good.<\/span><\/p>\n

We will “swallow” all this bad news, and these become part of our daily life.<\/span> Already we expect to receive something bad, we are always prepared for the worst.<\/span> And when we receive something good, we are suspicious;<\/span> after all, “when the charity is great even the saint is suspicious.”<\/span><\/p>\n

We are still obliged to also convey all that is negative and comes close to us.<\/span> Notice how even we who believe in the Resurrection of Christ, we are being caught in the negativity?<\/span><\/p>\n

All that weight is falling upon our mind and our heart, we are unmotivated, prostrate and slaughtered.<\/span> Many are afraid to leave the house and fall into a deep depression.<\/span> Still others, in the face of such instability are afraid to have children in this chaotic world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Believe that God loves us and wants us.<\/span> Although it is unconscious, it seems to us that the Lord has lost his strength and evil stands good.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are are celebrating the greatest event of all time: The Passover of the Lord Let us <\/strong>not only solve to celebrate that Jesus rose but to let Him resurrect our hope, our dreams, joy in our souls and the joy of living..<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are invited to make a difference.<\/span> Have children, yes, and educate in hope, teaching them that the world can be best from each one, trusting in the love of God who provides all things.<\/span><\/p>\n

We need to celebrate what is beautiful, see the police doing their job fairly, the person who found a wallet of money and returned it, the worker who earns his bread by the sweat of his own face and the businessman who does not withhold taxes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anyway, let’s look for the good news and spread it as someone who throws flower seeds in the wind;<\/span> and where there is a good earth, the seed is takes root,\u00a0 germinates and generates fruit.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are prophets of hope!<\/span><\/p>\n
