ATTENTION
In the past few days, I noticed that the Gospel readings are getting shorter and shorter. But even though they are short, they have a hidden meaning and value that is very big. One of the things that caught my attention in the Gospel are the words, “Pay attention.” Jesus told the apostles to pay attention to what he is telling them. In other translations, “Let this words sink into your ears.”

THE GHOST IN OURSELVES AND THE IMPORTANCE OF PRAYER
It is an inspiration for me to have a devotion for the souls in purgatory. A very rare devotion, indeed. Part of our faith is the communion of Saints. We, the Church militants pray for the Church suffering, and when they become saints, they, the Church triumphant, will intercede for us. In line with this, I want to talk about ghosts. I remembered a Korean movie entitled, "Don't Worry, I'm a Ghost," as if it tells me that I should not fear ghosts. That's why I remebered Casper, the friendly ghost.
