Mga igsoon! Good morning. Kumusta ang puso mo ngayon? ‘Yan ba ay puno ng poot, pag-aalala, pagsisisi, pagmamataas, pagpapakumbaba, kagalakan, o pagmamahal?

But instead of immediately going to them, Jesus replied with words that may sound surprising: “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”… Continue reading Reflection on Matthew 12:46-50

Reflection by Sem. Niel Reforma Why is it that sometimes, even when we are already given enough, we still ask for more? A sign, by its very nature, is meant to point us toward something beyond itself. A road sign points us toward a destination. A light in the darkness tells us that there is… Continue reading The Sign, God Has Already Given: Reflection on Matthew 12:38-42
