Feeling insecure?
Plagued with self-doubt and worries?
Brokenhearted and depressed?
This could be you or someone you know.
God wants you to be happy, healthy and whole.
Its time to Love Yourself as God Loves You.
Find healing in these pages.
This is a beautiful book. Let my friendMarj teach you how to heal the unloved parts within you and guide you to the pathways
of accepting, forgiving and celebrating your true self. BO SANCHEZ, bestselling author and Catholic lay preacher.
believe that heaven and hell start here right here, right
now. How?By the way you live your life each day.
Your afterlife will be a mirror image of what is in your
heart.But it will be eternally multiplied.
I know of people who are living a life of hell on earth.
Carl, a 73-year-old man, rang the doorbell of the house
of a former high school classmate. When the man opened the
door, Carl asked, Are you Norman Johnson?
When Norman answered, Yes, Carl pointed a .45-caliber gun
and shot Norman twice, blowing up his entire face.
Why did Carl kill Norman?According to Carl,he was still
mad at Norman because when they were in high school 56 years
ago (my gosh!), in a locker room prank, Norman put his smelly
supporter over Carls head!
It only happened once. But for the next 56 years, Carl replayed
that scene over and over again in his mind.
I repeat: Norman did it only once, but Carl did it thousands of
times putting that sweaty, smelly supporter over his head in
his imagination.
And if Carl heard good stuff about Norman how he got a
job, how he got promoted, how he got an award he would feel
terrible.The seed of bitterness that was planted 56 years ago was
nurtured every day and it grew bigger and bigger, until it became
a gigantic monster.Carl was living with this monster of bitterness,
eating him up inside.
I dont know what hell is like, because Ive never been there,
and I dont have plans of going.But I bet it must be very close to
that. Bitterness in your heart is hell.And if you dont ask Jesus to
heal that bitterness, hell continues even after death.
But if you live a life of love, you experience heaven now.
Have you noticed? The happiest people in the world are those
whose hearts are overflowing with love.
Let me say it again: Heaven and hell start now.
And so does purgatory
Everything that is happening in your life right now is purifying
you, sanctifying you, shaping you, and transforming you to
become more like Jesus until you become perfect. And just like
heaven and hell, purgatory continues even after you die.
Let me describe purgatory to you: When you die, youll see
God and youll run towards Him. I believe youll see God running
towards you, too. When you take one step, He takes 10 steps. As
you move closer to each other, you realize His love is burning away
all your imperfections.The closer you get to Him, the more perfect
you become.So that at that moment when God embraces you, all

his year, the first day of Advent will fall on November 30. Its a
time to prepare for the coming birthday of Jesus the best
time to teach our children the significance of Christmas and
help them celebrate it more meaningfully.
Children love to anticipate, wrote Helen McLoughlin in her
book Advent and Christmas in a Catholic Home. The following
practices will help your children prepare spiritually for Christmas:
Have an Advent wreath at home:Made of evergreens bound
to a circle of wire, the Advent wreath holds four candles. Three
purple ones are lit on each Sunday of Advent and a pink one for
Gaudete, the joyful third Sunday of Advent. It symbolizes the
many years from Adam to Christ in which the world awaited
its Savior. It can help the children prepare for Christmas, one
candle at a time. Look for prayers and hymns in the Internet
that can accompany your familys Advent wreath ceremony.
The nativity scene and the Christmas manger: Make
one manger for the whole family. The children can cut out
cardboards and make the nativity scene, shepherds and sheep
out of recycled materials. Give your children a piece of straw
that they can put in the manger whenever they do an act of
kindness, as a birthday present. Baby Jesus is placed in the
manger on Christmas morning. Encourage the children to
make Jesus bed as comfortable as possible through their
good deeds.
The Christ candle:Buy a large white candle that can be used
for the Christ candle. Use old Christmas cards, sequins and
recyclables to decorate the candle with symbols of Christ. The
candle can be lit on Christmas Eve to show that the Light of
the World has arrived.
The family that goes to Mass together and participates
in activities during Advent and Christmas seasons will grow
closer to Christ, The Reason for the Season, and give a great
witness to relatives and friends.

Five Simple
Tips for a
Healthy
Holiday
Pumpkin
Despite the struggles she was going through before, Beng just kept on serving
God through The Feast.
Getting Reconnected
One day, I received a call from my mom. After five long
years, I finally heard from her! I was so excited to meet her
and to tell her Id finished college and that I was working
already. I wanted to tell her about our achievements.
But before I could tell her all of that, she told me why
she stopped communicating with us and that it was
because she already has a family of her own. It never
crossed my mind and that broke my heart. Now, not
only did I hate my father; I also hated my mom more for
what she did.
It was too much for me and I would cry out to God.
Lord, this is too much to handle separated parents, a
brother ruining his life. Its too much.
Id pray for healing, both for the relationship of my
parents and forgiveness for my brother.
My Superhero
When my father retired from work, thats when he
became a mom to us. He cooked for us and took care of
everything that we needed, even if he was also getting
old. Thats the time I appreciated everything he did for us
sending us to school, providing for our needs. I said to
myself, Enough of hatred. I want to forgive him. I want
to spend more time with him. I want to give back to him
a little. To make him experience that he is my superhero.
God sometimes answers our prayers in ways that are
difficult to understand.
In September 2011, I noticed that my fathers feet were
swelling. I brought him to the hospital for a checkup. But
things happened so fast. That same day, he got admitted,
had a series of blood tests, and had blood transfusions. He
was diagnosed with kidney failure. So I took care of him in
the hospital. I had to handle all the decision-making, all
the bills. Everything.
God used that incident to heal my relationship with
him. A lot of firsts happened in the hospital. It was the
first time that I was with him for a whole day. Not only that.
Because his body got so weak, I had to feed him, change
his clothes, bring him to the comfort room. Seeing him
getting weaker by the day really broke my heart. Lord,
please dont get him yet. Please give me a chance to make
him feel that I love him a lot.
One night, while he was sleeping, I kissed his
forehead. Then I gathered all the courage to whisper
words that I had never said for the longest time: I love
you, Tatay! Thank you for everything! Mahal na mahal po
kita! (I love you very much!)
I believe in the healing power of words and touch.
After two days, he got better, was able to eat, and slowly
was able to walk again. I would sleep in the hospital
beside him. One night, I woke up and saw him seated at
the visitors chair. I asked him, Tay, why are you there?
And he said, Binabantayan kita! (Im looking after you.) It
was then that I realized that he loves us so much through
the little things that he has been doing for us. I realized
that perhaps he, too, suffered with us during the breakup
but he to had to be strong for us.
First family picture with mother after 20 years, minus one brother
who was at that time in the hospital.
Time Heals
We stayed in the hospital for almost two months. All that time,
I was on leave from work. A friend asked me, Why not ask your
mom to help you out, even if just to watch over your father at
the hospital? Shes probably willing to help. Since they had not
spoken after the breakup, I didnt know how my father would
react. But when I asked him, he just said yes. So that I could rest
a bit, he said. Now, my mom can visit us any time in the house.
Shes the one who brings my father to the dialysis center. Time
really heals all wounds.
But God was not done with us yet. Remember my younger
brother? You might have wondered where he was all the time
my father was at the hospital. Instead of being there for us, he
did the unthinkable. He went on with his vices. But from the
time my mom left us, I was there for him. Ive always believed in
him and felt a deep sadness for him for I know what a respectful
and loving person he truly is.
Last June 25, I received a call from the hospital. And my
other brother also texted me my brother got shot! At the
hospital, when I arrived, he said, Sorry.
I was speechless, but I told him to be strong and that
everything would be all right. I had to tell my mom and dad
what happened. At that time, I did not think of what my brother
had done to me. I did everything I could to save him, financially
and otherwise especially to be there by his side during his
surgery. Praise God, the operation turned out well.
Once again, God used a hospital episode to heal our
relationships this time with my mom. And if God wants
to use the hospital to heal us physically and emotionally as a
family, what greater gift of healing is there than that?

LOVING FOSTER FATHER

Dear
K
MY UNCLE IS IN LOVE
WITH ME
Before 2011, I had not met my uncle. We barely saw each other
when I was a kid and so I did not remember him at all. I only
got acquainted with him when my father died. I found comfort
in him. His presence helped fill the vacuum left by my dad. He
became so attached to my family since 2012 and we saw each
other almost every week.
Our times together were filled with laughter and happiness.
We exchanged text messages often. He became my confidante,
though I never saw him alone. I was always with my family.
Until one time, there was an event in our house and he was
among our guests. There was drinking and singing. When it was
almost midnight, my uncle went inside our house and asked me
to read something on his mobile phone, saying that he could
not read it as he had taken too much alcohol. He tapped me
on my shoulder and then his hand slowly caressed my back. He
even hugged me and kissed my head. Shocked by what he did, I
left him and went out.
I never told anyone about this. Im afraid to make an issue
of it and destroy the relationship that he has built with my
family.
Via text, I confronted him about what he did and he told me
that because of our closeness, he has developed some feelings
for me. He admitted that he loves me more than a niece. I told
him its wrong and now hes asking me out so we could talk.
He said he had a lot to explain; he wanted to apologize and
reconcile with me.
Honestly, Im afraid of him now, but I feel I need to hear his
explanation. I lost my trust in him but a part of me still wants to
love him as my uncle. My conscience bothers me. I might have
unconsciously done something that led him to feel that way.
Im bothered. Should I see him and listen to his explanation?
Should I forgive him? Should I tell about this to my mother and
sister? What should I do?
Monna
Dear Monna,
I understand how you feel and you have all the right to
feel bothered. His recent actuations show that he doesnt
look at you as a niece. Being drunk doesnt also justify how
he treated you that night. He disrespected you and, in a way,
your family as well, considering how you allowed him to be
part of your family.
I strongly suggest that you tell your mother and sister
about his advances. If he wants to apologize and explain to
you, then he must go to your house and not just meet you
elsewhere. If he is sincere, then he must do it in the presence
of your mother and sister. This is also for you own safety. You
dont know what he might resort to if you are alone with him.
You also need to stop confiding in him as it might be
sending him a wrong signal since, as you said, you might
have unconsciously done something that led him to feel
that way.
If he asks for forgiveness and he is sincere in doing so,
then you have to forgive him. However, you have to make
it clear that you will not welcome any advances from him
anymore.

Dear Chris,
First of all, let me congratulate you for attending Bible study sessions and
being eager to learn more about the Word of God.
In the spirit of ecumenism, it is good to join non-Catholics. But, as you
realize now, the group you have joined is using the Bible for their own beliefs,
which may contradict Catholic teachings. Unfortunately, such groups are
usually not open to accept an objective approach to the Bible. I heard once
on TV how Fr. Tapiador tried to point out the real meaning of a passage to a
Born Again preacher by going back to the original text. The only answer he
got was, Then there is something wrong with the original text.
Now that you are asked to form a cell group, you would be forced to
share non-Catholic teachings and so betray your faith. After praying to the
Holy Spirit for the right words, tell your friend in a very kind and charitable
way that your conscience does not allow you anymore to join in their
activities. Hopefully you find a Catholic Bible study group where you will be
able to learn the real meaning of the Word of God. You may attend The Feast
and ask to be connected to a Bible study group.

When Fr. Rudy Horst came to the Philippines in 1984, he was first
assigned to the Immaculate Conception Parish in Cubao. It was where
he came in contact with the still young Light of Jesus Family. In 1990,
he moved to Christ the King Mission Seminary, where he now serves
as head spiritual director of the seminarians and teaches Religious
Education. He also teaches Holy Scriptures at the Maryhill School of
Theology and the Divine Word School of Theology in Tagaytay.

Given the demands on his time, Jason wakes up early every
morning as his kids and wife are still sleeping, to have some
prayer time.
Every day I begin my day by consecrating it to our Lady and
doing the Liturgy of the Hours.
He also has a spiritual director as an accountability partner. I
go to confession once in about two or three weeks. Devotion to
our Lady, the Eucharist, and confession those are the pillars of
my spirituality, he shares.

THE ROAD TO
RESURRECTION
Death of Identity
I cant remember how young I was when I
learned the truth. My initial reaction was, Why
me? The answer to that question never came,
but the truth remained the same: the parents I
came to know were, in fact, my uncle and his
wife. At seven months, I had been put up for
adoption by my biological parents who were
residing in the province.
The pain of knowing the truth was somehow
alleviated by the love my adoptive mom had
showered on me. She was a wonderful woman.
My adoptive dad, on the other hand, was a man
of few words, but I believed he loved me just as
much. Those were blissful seven years of my life
until things changed. Thats when my journey
to a slow death began.
Death of Heart
Mom and Dad grew cold and distant with each
other. Gone were shared family meals, my
parents stopped sharing a room, and weekends
were spent separately with Mom and Dad.
Finally, I was about eight years old when mom,
my sister and I moved out.
Unfortunately, that was also the time the
bullying in school intensified. Ridicule and
teasing welcomed me in class every day. My
arms would get sore with pinches from my
classmates, and my lunchbox and pencils often
got stolen. One time, I was even locked in the
classroom during recess time. The bullying and

t was two months away from my wedding day, and there I was,
unsure of when and how Id be able to get out of Tacloban. I
kept assuring myself, Im safe here in the hotel. Still, I was afraid
because I could hear the howling wind outside and I could see
from my window the heavy rains pounding the entire city. The
glass windows could shatter any moment, so I stayed on my bed
and prayed.
I had a hard time praying the rosary and interceding for all the
people affected but that was the least I could do at that time. And
because all I could do was pray, I remember telling God, I will strive to
be a better person after this. I will be more active in serving You and
Your people. I will use this experience to tell others how You gave me
a second chance in life.
