Lord My Chef Daily Recipe for the Soul, 21 October 2025
Tuesday, Feast of St. Pedro Calungsod, Martyr
Romans 5:12, 15, 17-19, 20-21 <*((((>< + ><))))*> Luke 12:35-38
Where sin increased, grace overflowed all the more, so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through justification for eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 5:20-21).
Your words today,
O Lord Jesus Christ
are so inspiring
so reassuring
and edifying in these
most troubled times of our lives;
everywhere we look
or turn, there is an
anomaly, a corruption
happening or unearthed
that sadly hurt most the
poor and marginalized.
Yet, despite our
many trials and
hardships in life these days,
we never run out of good
people going out of their ways
to help, to care, to guide
those in need; most wonderful
to hear most of these great
stories of love and care
are by simple folks,
so unlike those supposed to be
more educated,
more upward
and mobile!
It was the same situation
of persecution when
St. Pedro Calungsod
kept his lamp lighted
with good works
among the locals in Guam
where he met his martyrdom.
Keep us faithful, Jesus
overflow us with your grace
while awaiting your daily coming
especially during the most
trying times.
Amen.
