a bruised reed he will not break, a smoldering wick he will not quench. Mt. 12:20
About Me
- bruised reed
- just shooting questions to the universe and hoping that when the right time comes I will receive some answers, or if not, I will be given something to enrich my life.

Not by force, never by force
I like what our Constitutions say about our style of education-evangelization: by persuasion.
By tapping on a person's interior resources, we create conditions that would allow the person to make a free choice.
Jesus never forces Himself on anyone, even when rejecting Him ultimately makes us sad. He just tries and tries again, knocking on our heart and hoping that we would open the door to Him.
We should do the same.
