Half measures and compromises weaken our Gospel witness. Chiara urges us to live coherently, with decision and endurance, faithful to Jesus until the end.

Maging Tapat at Buo

Kung naranasan natin ang bago at maganda sa pamumuhay ayon sa Ebanghelyo, makikita natin na wala nang higit na salungat dito kaysa sa pagiging walang pasya, katamaran sa buhay-espirituwal, kakulangan sa pagiging bukas-palad, mga kompromiso at hindi buong pagsisikap. Magpasya tayong sundan si Jesus at pumasok sa kahanga-hangang mundo na binubuksan Niya para sa atin. Ipinangako Niya na ang magtitiis hanggang wakas ay maliligtas.

Be Coherent

If we have experienced the novelty and beauty of living the Gospel, we will see that nothing is more contrary to it than indecision, spiritual laziness, lack of generosity, compromises and half measures. Let us decide to follow Jesus and to enter into the wonderful world He opens up to us. He promised that the one who endures to the end will be saved.

Closeness to others is born from God’s love poured into our hearts. Chiara reminds us to see every person as another self, overcoming selfishness with kindness.

Magmahal at Gawin ang Nais Mo

Upang hindi tayo, mga Kristiyano, maiwan ng panahon, kailangan nating subukan na ilagay ang pagmamahal sa ilalim ng lahat ng ating ginagawa, siguraduhing hindi ito mawala lalo na kung saan pinakamahirap at pinakamasakit ang buhay.

Love and Do What You Want

So that we Christians do not find ourselves behind the times, we have to try to put love beneath everything we do, being careful that it not be lacking where life proves most difficult and harsh.
