Weakness and suffering can become launch pads for God’s action. Chiara teaches us to trust Him, who transforms our nothingness into works of true value.

Bawat Hadlang ay Lunsaran ng Pagsulong

Mahalin natin ang bawat paghihirap na ating nararanasan, bawat dalamhati na nagmumula sa pagkaunawa na hindi tayo kasing lakas espirituwal o pisikal gaya ng ating inaakala. Magtiwala tayo sa Diyos. Siya ang kikilos sa ating kahinaan, sa ating kawalan. At kapag ang Diyos ang kumikilos, makatitiyak tayo na ang mga gawaing Kanyang natutupad ay may tunay na halaga.

Every Obstacle a Launch Pad

Let us love each suffering we encounter, every sorrow that comes from the realization that we are not spiritually or physically as strong as we thought we were. Let us trust God. He will work in our weakness, on our nothingness. And when it is God who acts, we can be sure that the works He accomplishes are of real value.

Encouragement builds justice and love in community. Chiara calls us to recognize the good in others and support one another on the path of faith.

Magpalakas-Loob

Subukan nating imulat ang ating mga mata sa mga kapitbahay na ating nakakasalubong at hangaan ang mabuti nilang ginagawa, anuman ang kanilang paniniwala. Nawa’y madama nila ang ating pakikiisa at nawa’y palakasin natin ang loob ng isa’t isa na ipagpatuloy ang landas ng katarungan at pagmamahal.

Encourage

Let us try to open our eyes to the neighbors we meet and admire the good they do, no matter what their beliefs might be. May they feel our solidarity with them and may we encourage one another to pursue the path of justice and love.
