J – Jesus. Our first marriage is towards
our Lord. He is the face of God. We cannot be at peace with others if we are
not at peace with ourselves. In Jesus, our true image is restored. The
single-heartedness is rational way of having integrity. To be a human is to
gain freedom. True freedom is a single choice that is the best and not having
all the choices. It is a good cure to a society torn by ambivalence, euphoria and emptiness. Our ego communed with Jesus is the divinization and
restoration of ourselves to its splendid beauty! With Jesus, we just can’t stop
smiling.
O – Others. First reading says, Alas here
is a bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh. This means that the man is equal to
woman. They have different roles but equal. Marriage is tried for many times
but this dark night can be overcome. Single partner represents fidelity to true
love for you the spouses I believe is God’s best instrument in bringing the
true love. It is the proper stance to living a life of beatitude. A single
heart towards heaven.
Y – You. It is the participation we have to
give. It is the least of all. To be like little children is Jesus’ wish for his
followers. We may have different positions in life but before God it is to be a
child. Children are full of energy, re-discovering things… We may have failed
so many times but we should thank God for the gift of faith. Mary is an example
who becomes like a little child, the apostles and the saints. If we stay hungry
and foolish in our faith then we will see how lovingly strong our faith is. Faith
conquers and knows no boundaries.
We commend to our Lady of the most Holy
Rosary all the couples especially those who are in great troubles.
There is so much Joy in the sacrament of Matrimony! O wonderful sacrament! You give joy because you give Jesus!
