Friend Not Purchase. Conquer!

Antoni BigCuore *

(Sp.sp, 30.04.2012, 2nd Tuesday at 12.22 hrs.) (Amended 11/05/2012)Hearing a reflection of a radio, radio on July 9, St. Paul, was born this inspiration to talk about friend and friendship.

Today, more than ever, people are in desperate search of goods, things, they can fill the emptiness they feel.And many companies, there are, unfair competition among employees. Wanting to "swallow" another to be promoted and succeed.The purpose of the word success, many people confuse the meaning of this word with artistic life. Success means BE DOING WHAT YOU LOVE IS LIKE THAT, AND STILL BE PAID OR NOT, BY THIS!.

This is success, in my humble opinion!. Like what you're doing, this is the way to be happy too!Who loves what he does or is doing, do it with LOVE, with joy, with love and thus work out well done and the person feels good about herself and others. Energy flows smoothly and abundantly in our favor.

Another important thing: letting go of things that pass. The goods of this world should be viewed as instruments to serve ONLY. We should not do, a car, for example, an IDOL! The money then, nor speak. People kill for money! "Sell" his mother, for him, many crimes are committed around the world for him.

Money is neither good nor inherently evil. It is a piece of paper or metal. Only a medium of exchange! But ... people do not think about it!Of course, the money used wisely, is a good thing!. It can give you a good medical care, buy medicines, a house, a car, you can provide good travel etc.. But, it enslaves the person is not prepared to manage it.

FRIEND NOT PURCHASE. CONQUER!

One thing I learned, after 65 kilometers run on this planet who can not buy friends, but is won!. Thus, friendship is a priceless, but builds up over a long period of coexistence. We learn from the differences and get used to living peacefully with them.The love of a friend is love "su generis." It's like a plant of pet you every day, put water in it, give him food and, for that matter, much attention too. Friendship is a great treasure, tells us, wisely, the Bible. She says, who found a friend, found a treasure!

To illustrate, let's see what John the Evangelist tells us in chapter 15, verses 12-17: "This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than he who lays down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends if you do what I say. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master. But I have called you friends, because you know I gave everything that I learned from my Father Ye have not chosen me, but I chose you and constituted you that ye should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain. I do so will constitute, in order for everything when you ask the Father in My name, He will grant you. What I command you: love one another. " (My italics) (1).

Jesus sums up the sense that it gives life and your project: your LOVE!; That his disciples should experience it and forward it to all people around the world. It's what they do after Pentecost in the Master Jesus ascends to heaven and send them the Holy Spirit the Paraclete, as he had promised.Love of friend is the reflection of God's love. Love is free love to last, as is the God's own children.
*****

Friend is more than a balm that calms us in the hour of pain; breeze of hope is that we involve the face, the water is when we are parched or dehydrated by the lack of love and hope, is the light at the end of the tunnel when Our forces are exhausted ... Friend's own incarnate love that makes us well and we acalanta the soul. Friend is an immeasurable treasure! Friend is everything! Amigo is a living shrine, is the source of living water that quenches our thirst and hunger for eternity!.

Amigo Não Se Compra. Conquista-se!

AMIGO NÃO SE COMPRA. CONQUISTA-SE!

Antoni BigCuore*

(sp.sp, 30.04.2012, 2ª feira, às 12,22 hrs.)

Ouvindo uma reflexão de um radialista, na radio 9 de julho de São Paulo, nasceu esta inspiração para discorrer sobre amigo e amizade.

Hoje, mais do que nunca, as pessoas estão em busca desesperada de bens, de coisas, que lhes possam preencher o vazio interior que sentem.

E muitas empresas, existem, uma competição desleal entre os funcionários. Um querendo “engolir” o outro para ser promovido e ter sucesso.

A propósito da palavra sucesso, muitas pessoas confundem o significado dessa palavra com vida artística. Sucesso significa ESTAR FAZENDO AQUILO QUE SE AMA QUE SE GOSTA, E AINDA, SER REMUNERADO OU NÃO, POR ISTO!.

Isto é sucesso, na minha modesta opinião!. Gostar do que se está fazendo, eis o caminho para também ser feliz!

Quem ama o que faz ou está fazendo, o faz com AMOR, com alegria, com carinho e, por isso, o trabalho sai bem feito e a pessoa se sente bem consigo mesma e com os outros. A energia flui suave e abundantemente em nosso favor.

Outra coisa importante: desapegar-se das coisas que passam. Os bens deste mundo devem ser encarados APENAS como instrumentos para servir. Não devemos fazer, de um carro, por exemplo, um ÍDOLO! Do dinheiro, então, nem se fale. As pessoas se matam por dinheiro! “vendem” a própria mãe, por ele; vários crimes são cometidos em todo o mundo por ele.

O dinheiro intrinsecamente não é bom nem mal. É um pedaço de papel ou metal. Apenas um meio de troca! Mas...as pessoas não pensam nisto!

Claro que o dinheiro usado com sabedoria, é uma coisa boa!. Pode de lhe dar uma boa assistência medica, comprar remédios, uma casa, um carro, pode lhe propiciar boas viagens etc. Mas, escraviza se a pessoa não estiver preparada para gerenciá-lo.

AMIGO NÃO SE COMPRA; SE CONQUISTA!

Uma coisa aprendi, depois de 65 kilometros rodados neste planeta, que amigo não se compra; mas se conquista!. Assim: a amizade é um valor inestimável, porém se contrói por um longo período de convívio. A gente aprende com as diferenças e se acostuma a conviver pacificamente com elas.

O amor de amigo é um amor “su generis”. É como uma plantinha de estimação que você, todos os dias, coloca água nela, dá-lhe alimentos e, por que não dizer, muita atenção também. A amizade é um grande tesouro, nos sabiamente as Escrituras Sagradas. Diz ele que quem encontrou um amigo, encontrou um tesouro!

Amigo é mais que um bálsamo que nos acalma na hora da dor; é aquela brisa de esperança que nos envolve o rosto; é a água quando estamos ressequidos ou desidratados pela falta de amor e de esperança; é a luz no final do túnel, quando nossas forças se exauriram... amigo é o próprio amor encarnado que nos faz bem e nos acalanta a alma. Amigo é um tesouro incomensurável! Amigo é tudo!

A AMIZADE É DOM DE DEUS! APRENDAMOS POIS A PRESERVÁ-LA!

Biblical Reflections ( 1 Jonh 10,11-18, Psalm 118)

Antoni BigCuore *

(Sp.sp. 04/28/12, Sunday, at 9.21 hrs.)Brothers and sisters in Christ, good morning! May grace, peace and joy flood your hearts!Below are the scriptures for our Sunday reflection:

READING OF THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES:In those days, 8Pedro, filled with the Holy Spirit, said: "Heads of the people and elders: 9hoje are being questioned for having done good to the sick and the way it was cured. 10Ficai therefore, knowing all of you and all the people of Israel, is the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, - one whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead - the man is cured before you.11Jesus is the stone which you builders, despised, and that became the cornerstone. 12in there is no other salvation, because there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. "- Word of the Lord.- Thank God.The stone which the builders rejected / has now become the cornerstone.- The stone which the builders rejected / has now become the cornerstone.- Praise the Lord, for He is good! / "His mercy endures forever!" / It is better to take refuge in the Lord / of what humans put in the hope ;/ is better to take refuge in the Lord, / than counting with the powerful of this world!- I give you thanks, O Lord, because I heard / and have become the savior for me! / The stone which the builders rejected / has now become the cornerstone. / For the Lord is that all this was done marvels that ;/ it made our eyes!- Blessed be, in the name of the Lord, / the one who will enter his courts! / You are my God, I bless and thank you! / You are my God, I extol with praises! / Praise the Lord, because he is good! / "His mercy endures forever!"

GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN, Chapter 10, verses 11 18:

At that time, Jesus said: 11 "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep.12The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming, leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf attacks and scatters. 13Pois it is just a mercenary who does not care about the ovellhas.14Eu am the good shepherd. I know my sheep and they know me, 15assim as the Father knows me and I know the Father I give my life for the sheep.16Tenho have other sheep not of this fold: them also I must bring, they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock and one shepherd.17E why my Father loves me, because I lay down my life, and then receive it again. 18Ninguém takes my life, I give of myself, I have power to lay it down and have power to receive it again, this is the order I received from my Father. "

BIGCUORE ´S REFLECTIONS: Beautiful, as always, the Bible readings, especially those of today. Peter speaks of Jesus as the "cornerstone".The cornerstone for those unaware, is one that gives support in the cases of those arched portals, especially in churches or in homes or commercial buildings. It is one stone that is right in the middle of the arc, giving support to the entire wall. Therefore, of paramount importance. The builders know this very well!The Gospel of John tells us the Good Shepherd. Jesus is the good shepherd: the real one, who dies in defense of their flocks, looking very carefully, especially by those weaker or underprivileged.It was just that, he came to do on earth. If incarnate by the Holy Spirit within Mary, Mother of God and our Mother, to redeem our sins!

"Look at the cross, this is my big test," says the music of Valverde, Mexican singer.And what we see today, my brothers and sisters in Christ '. We see many opportunists taking the sheep to the misery, taking them, to the penny, making BARGAIN with God, to be "rich" to improve life.Of course, God bless his children! This will depend on the degree of experience in the faith and the degree of TUNING with your project! And also their level of Charity do, because as Paul says, "charity is the bond of perfection." Without charity, no one enters Paradise!

Life is movement!. The universe is an eternal and DAR RECEIVE!The more love you show people the better! As more and more seeds of kindness, gentleness, peace, joy, you distribute to their fellows, the better! Your harvest will be sure and abundant!Well, this works like a boomerang. Bounces back to yourself! The universe follows its own logic, the laws of nature and physics.

THE MERCENARY COMES TO STEAL!

How many "mercenaries" from day to day, rob us of peace and happiness? That envy, jealousy, malice, finally, negative feelings that many people, especially at work, to show you?Jesus is our model!. He is truly the Son of God, the Incarnate Word, the second person of the Trinity, for God is a Trinitarian community of love: God the Father, Creator, God the Son, Jesus Christ, the Word (word) Incarnate, the Redeemer, and God Holy Spirit, Sanctifier. This is "misterium fidei," the mystery of faith!.

"THE GOOD SHEPHERD GIVES HIS LIFE FOR SHEEP" (v. 11)

That's it! A holy and happy Sunday to all my dear readers and readers! Peace, prosperity, harmony and joy in their hearts!(*) the author is writer in São Paulo,Brazil. .Know his BLOG GOOD LIVING -BEM VIVER- http://antonibigcuore.blogspot.com (self, spirituality and healthy living) and link: www.recantodasletras.com.br/autores/antonibigcuore
