Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord,
In a few hours, year 2005 shall become history, a moment of the past. Each one of us shall carry memories of this year, some joyful moments and/or some sad moments. No matter what was the outcome of last year, we have to move ahead in our faith. We have to focus our eyes on the Lord Jesus, persist in our spiritual growth through the Holy Spirit, always maintaining our unity and participation with the Holy Catholic Church in order to receive the priceless Sacraments that lead us towards salvation.
The beginning of a new year is an excellent opportunity to let go of one or more bad habits. It is a time to make resolutions in the hope of keeping them. Just remember, it is better to make just one resolution and to keep it versus making three and being unable to keep any of them. Leave the other two for year 2007 and 2008!
I am wishing you all a happy and joyful New Year, asking the Lord Jesus to generously bless each and everyone of you, in your worldly and spiritual needs. May the Holy Spirit give you great knowledge, understanding and wisdom during the coming you.
Through the Hearts of Jesus and Mary,
Jonn,
