Spiritual Corner Sincere Repentance
We should repent of our sins while we are still on earth. When a potter is making a vessel and it becomes misshapen or breaks in
his hands, he shapes it again; but once placed in the oven, it is beyond repair. Now the clay in the craftsman’s hands is an image of our-selves, and it teaches us that, while still in this world, we must wholeheartedly repent of sins
committed in the body and make it possible for the Lord to save us while there is time.
When we have left this world, we shall no longer be able to repent and confess our sins. We must do the will of the Father, keep our bodies pure, and observe the commandments of the Lord, for this is the way to obtain eter-
nal life. The Lord says in the gospel: If you have not been observant in small matters, who will entrust you with anything important? For I tell you that the man who is faithful in the smallest things is faithful in the greatest
things as well. In other words, in order to obtain eternal life, we must remain pure and keep the seal of our baptism undefiled.
Nor must any of you say that our bodies will not share in the judgment, nor rise again.
In what were you saved? In what did you receive your sight? Think for a moment. Was it not in this very body? Our bodies are the
temple of God, and as such we must guard them, for even as we were called in the body, so shall we also be judged in the body. Since Christ, our Lord and Savior, who in the begin-ning was spirit, became flesh and in this way
called us, it is in this flesh of ours that we shall also receive our reward.
Therefore, let us love one another, so that we may all attain to the kingdom of God. While we can still be healed, let us surrender ourselves into the hands of our divine physi-cian and give him his recompense—the recom-
pense of true sorrow for our sins. Since he who knows all things sees what is in our hearts, let us praise him with our hearts as well as our lips. He will then receive us as his sons. The Lord himself has said: Those who do my Fa-
ther’s will are my brothers.

tions—December
Evangelization: In the Service of the Transmission of Faith
That people, who are involved in the service and transmission of faith, may find, in their dialogue with culture, a language suited to the conditions of the present time.
Vocation
Could God be calling you to be a priest or religious and announce the Good News to His People as John the Baptist did? If you think God is calling you to be a priest,
religious or deacon, contact Fr. Chris Lemieux, Vocation Director, Archdiocese of Toronto. Phone: 416-968-0997 email: [email protected]
Our parish Advent Confession will be held on Wednesday, Dec.19, 7:00pm- 9:30pm. There will be a number of priests to hear confession in Cantonese, Mandarin and English. Let us grasp this opportunity to make a good confession, to reconcile with God and our neighbors, and to prepare ourselves for Christmas.
