Daily Bible Reflections for May 5, 2009 Dear choi, God has a great plan for your life?including this Tuesday. Praying for you, Bo Sanchez 5 May Tuesday TODAY'S READINGS: DIDACHE | COMPANION | SABBATH DIDACHE   DOUBLE jEOpARDY   So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long are you going to keep us in suspense?" – John 10:24   Oh no! Not again! We were stranded in Guangzhou, China for a second time. On both occasions, what was supposed to be a stopover became an extended stay. Only three months earlier, we couldn't land in this city because of "poor visibility." During that flight, we circled around the city for four suspenseful and agonizing hours. I wondered how visibility could be the problem when the city lights were clearly visible from the airplane windows! I suspected something more frightening — like a hijack. It caused me to pray harder and put my trust in Him. When we finally landed, we were comfortably booked in a five-star hotel with sumptuous international buffet. Because of the delay, we got a free day tour when we arrived in Frankfurt, Germany! The second time we got delayed, we were booked in a resort-hotel and, the following day in Hong Kong, we were able to make an unscheduled visit with relatives. There were surely other reasons for the delays but, in my heart, I know that the Lord had worked everything for our good because we trusted Him. Rolly España   REFLECTION: Do you look at things negatively and feel that a disaster is always following you?   Lord, thank You for Your Word which promises that You will turn everything unto good for those who love You (Romans 9:28).   Didache | Companion | Sabbath | Top COMPANION   1st READING   It is the persecution of the Christians, first by the Jews in Jerusalem and then later by the Roman Empire as a whole, that is one of the primary influences and impulses that led to the Gospel being spread beyond its origins. Today we read of the Gospel reaching Cyprus and Phoenicia; it will then go to what is today Eastern Turkey, Greece and Rome. I wonder what we are doing to contribute to its spread today in our own countries and regions.   Acts 11:19-26 19 Those who had been scattered by the persecution that arose because of Stephen went as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to no one but Jews. 20 There were some Cypriots and Cyrenians among them, however, who came to Antioch and began to speak to the Greeks as well, proclaiming the Lord Jesus. 21 The hand of the Lord was with them and a great number who believed turned to the Lord. 22 The news about them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas [to go] to Antioch. 23 When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to remain faithful to the Lord in firmness of heart, 24 for he was a good man, filled with the holy Spirit and faith. And a large number of people was added to the Lord. 25 Then he went to Tarsus to look for Saul, 26 and when he had found him he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a large number of people, and it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians.   P S A L M   Psalm 87:1b-3. 4-5. 6-7 R: All you nations, praise the Lord. 1 His foundation upon the holy mountains 2 the LORD loves: The gates of Zion, more than any dwelling of Jacob. 3 Glorious things are said of you, O city of God! (R) 4 I tell of Egypt and Babylon among those that know the LORD; Of Philistia, Tyre, Ethiopia "This man was born there." 5 And of Zion they shall say: "One and all were born in her; and he who has established her is the Most High LORD." (R) 6 They shall note, when the peoples are enrolled: "This man was born there." 7 And all shall sing, in their festive dance: "My home is within you." (R)   G O S P E L   Jesus does not hide the fact that He is the Son of God. He may be using a language that is not as direct as it might be in explaining this truth, but He never denies it, nor does He directly hide it. I have experienced the difficulty of trying to get a message across to a group who are not willing to hear that particular message. It is virtually impossible to get people to hear something they refuse to consider as an option! This does not happen all that often, but when it does, it is very frustrating.   John 10:22-30 22 The feast of the Dedication was then taking place in Jerusalem. It was winter. 23 And Jesus walked about in the temple area on the Portico of Solomon. 24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly." 25 Jesus answered them, "I told you and you do not believe. The works I do in my Father's name testify to me. 26 But you do not believe, because you are not among my sheep. 27 My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father's hand. 30 The Father and I are one."   my reflections think: I wonder what we are doing to contribute to the Gospel's spread today in our own countries and regions.   _________________________________________________________ God's special verse/thought for me today________________ _________________________________________________________ T O D A Y ' S BLESSING LIST Thank You Lord for: ____________________________________ _______________________________________________________   READ THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR Leviticus 25-27     Didache | Companion | Sabbath | Top SABBATH   WorkinG toGether For the kinGDom   Barnabas and Saul worked together for a number of years in the service of the Gospel. We hear at first how Barnabas takes the lead and seems to be a mentor of sorts to Paul. It is Barnabas who introduces Paul to the apostles and vouches for him; it is Barnabas who "calls the shots" as to what they do and where they go. The impression the Scriptures give is one of Barnabas training Paul for his later work of evangelization. Ultimately, Paul and Barnabas have a falling out and they go their separate ways. By the Second Missionary Journey of Paul, Barnabas is no longer with him and Paul is obviously the leader. No one person is capable of doing everything. It does not matter how gifted an individual might be, he will always need the help and support of others. The challenge that we all face here is learning to work with different personalities and having the humility to be willing to give way a little and stand firm at other times in order to maintain the unity of the community while not compromising the truth of the Gospel. This can be a very difficult path to walk at times and if people are not committed to unity, there will inevitably be a split. I do not believe any split in the community of the faithful is God-ordained. God always works for unity and harmony, never for division and discord. When difficulties arise, it is important that we do everything to work for reconciliation and unity. This may require a lot of humility but this is better than to be part of the split; better to be faithful to the work of the Spirit than to set ourselves above the will of God. Having said that, I recognize that there will be disagreements that will not be resolved simply because of the sinfulness of the people involved. When this happens, it is important that we do what we can to avoid the same result in the future. The continual splitting of so-called churches when one pastor decides to branch out on his own is anathema to God who desires the unity of His flock, not the opposite. Fr. Steve Tynan, MGL   Reflection Question: Do I work for the unity of the People of God in the way I express my faith and minister the Gospel to others?   Holy Spirit, use me as an instrument of unity to bring reconciliation between individuals and groups that have parted ways so that they may one day join forces and work together in spreading the Good News.   St. Angelo, Martyr, pray for us.   Didache | Companion | Sabbath | Top

CANCER CELLS

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY . Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins 1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size. < BR> 2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime. 3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors. 4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors. 5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system. 6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc. 7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs. 8.. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction. 9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications. 10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites. 11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply. WHAT CANCER CELLS FEED ON: a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal,Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt. b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells are being starved. c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer. d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).. e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water-best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it. 12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become purified and leads to more toxic buildup. 13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells. 14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apotheosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells. 15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgivingness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life. 16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.   (PLEASE FORWARD IT TO PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT) This is an article that should be sent to anyone important in your life.
