TIN MỪNG CHO NGƯỜI TRẺ: FAMILY AND FRIENDS OR GOD?
In today’s Gospel reading Jesus says, “If any one comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciples.”
You probably thought that God doesn’t want us to hate anyone, right? Well, He doesn’t! Especially as we celebrate the Father’s Day today, I am sure God wants us to love our dads. What Jesus was saying was that we should love God more than we love the people closest to us. He means that we should be ready to do what God wants even if that means losing our family or best friends.
Normally God wants us to stay close to the people we love, but what if you had to choose between doing the right thing or keeping your friends? Are you ready to give up anything or anyone that would stop you from loving God?
Celebrating Father’s Day.
Father’s Day is a celebration honouring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society.
Father’s Day is celebrated across the Globe to recognize the contribution of all the fathers in the lives of children. The love, care and affection a father showers upon his children can never be measured in any way. He deserves all the good things in his life, no denying it. The responsibilities he takes care of with utmost dedication is genuinely commendable. He is the protector of his kids. No matter what the circumstances, he always stands like a solid rock in front of his children. That is the reason why we always look up to him when we are facing our lows. On this Father’s Day, spend time with your beloved father, make him feel special, and read exciting facts about fathers.
