During our last Action Group, we did a small activity about the gift of prophesy. We discussed about its meaning, means to acquire it and strengthening it if we already have it.
Doms, Eric and I created a personal evaluation and shared it with each other.We have agreed that the gift of prophecy is a fruit of our prayer time and scriptural readings. But sometimes if not most of the time we fall into not doing it.
Doms suggested that we create a schedule like TTHS (Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday) or MWF (Mondays, Wednesday and Friday) instead of having to do it on a daily basis if we really experience difficulty doing it.
He also told us, that it is important still to pray everyday because it is as if telling God to take the back seat and us to take over the driver seat for that particular day.From habit comes our attitude and from our attitude comes our character.
Habits such as these create our attitude and from our attitude we build our character.On the contrary, small negative habits also have an effect to our character for from these small flaws emanates the bigger problems in life that we may find our self difficult to get away from.From this activity I realized that I am still trap within my attitude of all or nothing thinking. Whether I will accomplish everything or I will not do it at all. It is a question of choice after all.
Choosing to do what is not good even if I know of the danger of falling into a bigger problem just because I was not able to completely accomplish it. Or choosing to do it still and be kind to forgive and forget those moments when I fail to accomplish it.A giant leap in life is a by product of small preparations - small leaps to the unknown which builds our courage to face the giant leap ahead of us.
Breaking things down and being able to live my talk is all that matters now. It is doing not because I am forced but a product of love to what I am doing. This brings forth commitment which comes naturally from my free will.

15 Minutes
How many hours will you invest in order to be a productive individual? Guess what!!! …..15 minutes. Yes 15 minutes. A 15-minute investment of your time to keep your things in order is a small investment that can reap big rewards. That's it, just by investing a small portion of your time each day can make you a systematic person, well-organized and in control of your life.
Looking for something is a waste of time. If we can allot just 15 minutes to put things into its right place can help us prevent from being stressed looking for things. Maybe it is about time to remove some of unnecessary files, papers and so on.
An organized way of storing our things before, during and after we end our day can be a wise way of saving our precious time for more productive activities.
You can also use a 15-minute break to jog, bike, do some sit-ups. It doesn't have to be done in a meticulous strict time format. Small chunks of good things is better than doing nothing at all.
For 15 minutes you can also meditate and pray. Read a bible passage and reflect. It can be the gospel reading of the day and the commentary of the priest or the author.
Just for 15 minutes you can call a friend or loved one and say a simple hi or hello. You can also use your 15 minutes to spend some quality time with your nephew or niece.
Also for just 15 minutes you can create a plan for the week, the day and as the day ends evaluate if you achieved your goals.
Yes there are indeed many things that you can do positively with your 15 minutes. You can read a good book (a chapter will do), write a poem, take a nap and other great things.
Yes even writing this sharing took me 15-minutes to finish….and some more minutes for editing.
