Lure of Power, Wealth and Glory
by Ross Dizon | Mar 1, 2022 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus wears the crown of glory since he rejected the devil’s lure and suffered death. The Crucified is model of true...

Lies, Darkness and Polarizations
by Ross Dizon | Feb 22, 2022 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus is the light of the world. To follow him means not to walk in the dark, in lies, but to have the light of life,...

Heavenly as Our Father Who Is in Heaven
by Ross Dizon | Feb 15, 2022 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus, the second man is from heaven. He bids us to be one with him, so that we who are of the earth may become...
Night of Peace, Mission, Faith and Clearness
by Ross Dizon | Apr 18, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Granting us peace and entrusting us a mission, the risen Jesus makes the night shine as the day. He thus arouses faith. As the night falls, the disciples look for safety in a house with locked doors. That is because they are afraid of fellow Jews who sought the...
Dawn Means Love and Return to the Source
by Ross Dizon | Apr 11, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
The risen Jesus is the dawn from on high. When we love him and keep his word, our darkness fades. Mary Magdalen visits the tomb at dawn. Seeing the tomb open, she worries just as the religious leaders do. It worries them that someone may steal the body of Jesus....
Die as Does Jesus on the Cross
by Ross Dizon | Apr 4, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Obeying God and keeping his word, Jesus dies on the cross. Christians ought to die in the same way. We hear, not rarely, “Such life, so too the end.” That is to say, we die as we live. So, St. Vincent rightly teaches that to die like Jesus Christ, one has to live...
Now is the Day of the Resurrection and the Life
by Ross Dizon | Mar 28, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus is the resurrection and life here and now for those who truly believe in him. We now experience in this earthly life anxieties, adversities, miseries and tragedies. These things, however, should not worry us nor make us lose our peace. In this regard, the key...
Welcome for the Marginalized and Excluded
by Ross Dizon | Mar 21, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
As he gives welcome to the marginalized, Jesus reflects the invisible God. This God listens to the poor, executing justice for the orphan and the widow, and befriending the alien. Jesus is unlike those who walk around with blinders. As he passes by, he sees a blind...
Thirst and Hunger for God, Justice and Love
by Ross Dizon | Mar 14, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Meeting his thirst and hunger, Jesus gives us a model to follow, so that we may truly have our fill of water and food. Like us humans, Jesus gets tired and experiences thirst and hunger. So, he sits down there at Jacob’s well in Sychar during the hottest part of the...
Promise of Greatness, Blessing and Glory
by Ross Dizon | Mar 7, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus is the perfect, awesome and amazing fulfillment of the promise God has made through the patriarchs and the prophets. From the perspective of human wisdom, the good news is that God makes a hopeful promise to Abraham. But the bad news is that the Father of all...
Tempting but Destructive Suggestion
by Ross Dizon | Feb 28, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus is God-Man. He himself unmasks the deceit in the devil’s tempting suggestion: it is either God or man. From the perspective of our faith in the Word made flesh, we cannot but reject such tempting suggestion. It is not true that one must choose either God or...
End, and of course, Beginning, too, of our Seeking
by Ross Dizon | Feb 21, 2017 | Formation, Reflections
Jesus is the beginning and the end of our efforts to seek the Kingdom of God and his righteousness. Christians should seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. To make sure we start out well and end successfully, all we need to do is follow Jesus. Jesus...
