First Reading – 1 Peter 4:7-13 1 June 2018
I personally feel this is a very powerful reading, so please read and meditate on God’s word and I am sure you will surely have a message from God which would encourage you and make you a better person with a purpose in life.

First reading 1 Peter 4:7-13 ©
Each of you has received a special grace
Everything will soon come to an end, so, to pray better, keep a calm and sober mind. Above all, never let your love for each other grow insincere, since love covers over many a sin. Welcome each other into your houses without grumbling. Each one of you has received a special grace, so, like good stewards responsible for all these different graces of God, put yourselves at the service of others. If you are a speaker, speak in words which seem to come from God; if you are a helper, help as though every action was done at God’s orders; so that in everything God may receive the glory, through Jesus Christ, since to him alone belong all glory and power for ever and ever. Amen.
My dear people, you must not think it unaccountable that you should be tested by fire. There is nothing extraordinary in what has happened to you. If you can have some share in the sufferings of Christ, be glad, because you will enjoy a much greater gladness when his glory is revealed.
About
Hi! My name is Florence D’Costa. I am a Catechist in my Parish in Melbourne, Australia. I also consider myself to be an evangeliser and hence, I have this great yearning in my heart to Evangelise and to talk about Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I have started this blog to express some of the things that I think is important and I hope that my readers both Catholics, Christians and others, would benefit.
I have studied scripture for five years and I was trained in teaching scripture. I have in turn taught scripture for one year to a group of the faithful who have been yearning to learn the Word of God. I was also trained in performing skits, write poems, stage on the spot dramas from stories in the bible and evangelise through dance and song.
I am also an Actress and a Singer and I belong to two Theatre Groups – COG Theatre Group and Amuse Threatre Group. We, in COG Theatre perform Christian Musicals to promote Jesus Christ. We train and teach cast members to become better performers and also to realise that they have been created for a specific purpose in life. In Amuse Theatre Group, we help cast members to become better people with a purpose and aim in life. When we stage plays, we reach out to the audience with a message which would stir them to become better people – people with a purpose in life!
By profession, I am a Civil Celebrant and I help people to celebrate any occasion.
I have a talent to make people happy. Happiness and joy come from Our Lord Jesus Christ. What I have freely received, I freely give. I have a flair for writing and I will try my best to help people to the best of my ability.
