X'MAS MESSAGE

Dear fathers/Brothers,

 

Prayerful Christmas Greetings from Carmel Provincial House, Muvattupuzha!

The year is just about to end and I am sending New year and Christmas greetings to you.

This is a celebrating season and the Lord has been so good to me throughout the year. I guess He has been good to you too. I want you to join me in thanking God for his wonderful blessings upon us. Christmas is not only a time of celebrating but also the time of reflection in my life.

 

Let’s reflect on this old shoe story:

 

Two marketing executives were sent to Africa to sell shoes. They saw that none of the people in Africa wore shoes. One of the salesmen sent a message, “There is no market for shoes as nobody wears any shoes here”. The other salesman said, “Please send as many containers of shoes as possible as nobody has any shoes here”.

The same situation - viewed differently. It is the perception of both: one saw it as a problem and the other as an opportunity. The perception depends on  attitude. A positive attitude can only show the actual face of opportunity.

“So please don’t sleep or go out when opportunity knocks your door”. Identify and open the door of your mind!

 

May the grace of Our Mighty Father be with you all during this eve of Christmas. Have a blessed Christmas and a happy New Year. God Loves You.



Fr. Tomy Nambiaparambil CMI
