Reflection 2: Age of Catholic Christianity (Nov. 17 & 19 Sessions)

The Age of Christianity


I learn that the early happenings of the Christian History was to too for the early Christians that were belonged in the Roman Empire State that causes them to undergo such great persecution. But even though of such persecution, still, as what the saying stated, " The Blood of the Martyr is the seed of the Church," really caused a great impact of the development of the Christianity that even caused the Gospel to spread more because of the persecutions that are displayed in the Roman Empire. 

In reflecting my life as I learn this, I realize that I need to stand in the midst of challenges in the ministry. I already learn this before from the Father who has bee in the ministry for almost 25 years, that his life is not so easy and and even there are times that it lead him even to the point of death. But still he did not gave up even though a lot of people not only will refuse him as he preached the gospel, but also make fun of him as he preaches the gospel. But still he did not gave up. This is what I need develop in myself that I need to stay strong and and even accept challenges in life as the declare the gospel of God to the people.

Even that life is hard in the ministry, no matter of bad criticisms of other people, I should not give up but the more that I will pray for them and even show goodness. I should not reject them but even I should be more challenged to show my love for them just as Christ love them even He is rejected by them. I need to show my unconditional love even though I am not obliged to do it.
