Service?
Last Sunday's service was a bit good.As always, most of the members was late?(bago pa ba yan?). May be we are really "committed", committed to be always late. It is just a manifestation of the halfheartedness of most of the members when it comes to the service. May be we should rededicate this so called service, instead of going to Sunday's service, each must go to be of service to one another and of course to God. Every body is guilty about this issue of punctuality but as church man and woman, I guess we have the capability of doing something about this. It is about respecting each other's time.
See you next Sunday and hope to see improvement with the time keeping. With the
restructuring that transpired last Sunday to the leadership hope it will make a difference.
This is just an observation and I'm not pointing fingers because each of us have the responsibility as members to make every aspiration and direction of the group into reality. Lets make it happen! God bless to my fellow Breviarians.

Situation in life, Who does not have?
If people doesn't care about everybody else aside from him self, then there is no question about respecting one's time. Everybody has their own situation in life, may be hard may be not.But it doesn't give us the right to despise other's time. May be consideration was given to each and everyone of us, a twice late forgiven, trice late forgotten but consistently late?Are you serious?God did not force us to serve him if we think that we are not ready for him then it is your choice to continue or not. In choosing not to continue we did not loose you, instead you loosed God. We are not here to please each other but we are here to please our God Jesus Christ. Moreover, Being in a group is doing the same thing harmoniously. If everybody is on time then we definitely can make something more productive for him,but if most of us do not share the vision of the group there is no question why you and I is always late.
I can give a million reason why I am always late just like anyone else but do you think it is fair to God who gave us the luxury of time. Most of our time is being used for our own consumption and what is left is for God, may be 1/8 or may be less...
individual differences
True...but "simple" to some can sometimes be "complicated" to others...
most people with "unique" situations may not be around or comply with punctuality but through their own way, and with everybody's individual differences and perspectives ,who knows what kind of faith he has that is different to ours?...do your way, they'll do theirs...
its a sense of Understanding...beyond our own...
some people needs time to understand things around them. Shouldn't we take in consideration the world around us? That it may be hard on them and easy on us...let's give that time for others to see, realize and reflect to the real mystery upon their life... if we keep pushing them to what they're not ready for...we lose them....with consequences...
we wouldn't want that...
most saints are late bloomers right?hehe
Let us Pray
with all the conflicts arising to every kind of perspective of each and everyone, PRAYERS give the assurance of putting an END to this "bago pa ba yan?"
i myself may be the most GUILTY person about this blog, but my journey for peace doesn't end here...there's more to punctuality....FAITH...
Let's pray ON TIME!
It is a given fact that everybody has there own perspective in everything under the sun but it doesn't excuse us to be diligent or be responsible with our action. Being punctual is a sign of being faithful. If a simple act can not be done sincerely then the question is "Do you really have faith?". OR " Are you really faithful?"
The issue of punctuality is a battle of every person. It is a test of personality and faithfulness to what we love to do. If we are eager to be on time on a special date then why can't we be on time with our date with the Lord?. Can we claim that we are faithful if we can not commit to be on time?
Finally, simple thing is to be done first before we complicate our selves. If there's someone to wait it should be the servant not the king. Are we the King of our own or God is our king?
