7TH
FEBRUARY 2013 WATCH YOURSELF P.I.U.O.
ON YOUR BIRTHDAY
Motto: Sentiam
Christum in Vita Meam.
On a day like this P. I.
U. O. think back and make a stock-taking of your past especially of
your life and how you have influenced others positively or negatively too but
more essentially positively and the virtues you have been able to imbibe from
others. Ipso facto, each birthday celebration ought to be Eucharistic,
Thanksgiving (cf. Lk. 5:14; Sir. 7:31), Penitential, sincerely sorry for my
past bad life (Lk. 5:13; Sir. 7:31), Charitable, doing good for others (Tobit 4:16),
Eschatological, looking at the future what it will give after my life on earth
(Lk. 13:1-13). With these characters, it can make meaning to you celebrating
the birthday and those around you. Consequent to this, on this my birthday my
names speaks to me thus:
P – PUT everything you
do - thinking, talking and acting to be sanctifying one in relating with
others, for it identifies you as Paul.
A – ABANDON yourself
sincerely for the good of others, for it makes you really Paul.
U – UNITY with
Eucharistic Lord, by so doing learn how to give thanks and appreciation, if
lacking, the meekness and humbleness is not found in you as Paul.
L – LOVE which is
sacrificial, victim, oblation, auto-edifying and hetero-edifying makes you
Paul, if not, you are sinning.
I – INSISTENCE always
to avoid sin, shows the power of God (IKECHUKWU) in you.
K – KNOWLEDGE of divine
characters in others ought to uplift your spirituality, without that you are
shaming the dynamite of God in you.
E – EXPRESS yourself in
a most clear way always and everything and among others, so that the power of
God may ignite the divine love in them.
C – COMPASSIONATE character ought to come from you to others,
even when you think that the wrong done to you is consciously done, if not you
are not showing the power of God in His merciful nature.
H – HOLINESS is and
ought to be holistic and integral from the most commonest thing ever you do
each moment and each day, by so doing the power of God draws people to Himself.
U – UNION with those
who do sincere effort to grow in intimacy with God, shows that the power of God
in you is illuminating.
K – KNOCK down every
negative influence to pull you off or down from spiritual and moral growth
towards God, for this is a manifestation of IKECHUKWU.
W – WATCH and pray
always that the power of God may be appreciated by those around you.
U – UNDER the power of the Holy Spirit, the Almighty
reveals Himself in the most simple and common form from your life so let people
see CHRIST in you always.
U – UNANIMITY in doing that which brings down God’s anger
ought to be avoided, in so doing the honour of God’s children is eloquent.
G – GOODNESS is honour
of God’s bounty, therefore try to be good to people always.
O – OFFER your time to
others who need your assistance, in so doing God is honoured.
C – COMMITMENT to
spiritual life elevate the personality, hence honour is divinely felt by
others.
H – HOLD tenaciously
the good and sound teaching you learnt from childhood so that your life will be
a mirror that reflects the great honour of God (UGOCHI).
I - INCARNATED Son is
an honour to the TRINITY made visible also in His Eternal Priesthood.
O – OBEDIENCE to the
Word of Life brings down God’s justice.
G – GOD of Justice is
full of compassion.
U – UMBRAGE nobody
consciously but be quick to ask for pardon if done for that is charity in
justice.
J – JEALOUSY is very
antagonistic to justice so try to avoid that.
I – INSPIRATIONAL words
are always heart uplifting, so abide by it justifiably.
O – OSTENTATIOUS life
ought to be avoided vehemently.
F – FORCEFULLNESS in
applying Christian virtue in life is very important.
F – FEAR of the Lord is
the beginning of wisdom, that is justice indeed.
O – OPINION of the
public about you can help you fashion yourself for better always.
R – READINESS to
sacrifice yourself at all times is a way of justice in life for eternity
