The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of ATTITUDE in life. It's more important than facts, more important than the past, circumstances, education, money,failures, successes.Than what other people think, or say, or do. We do have a choice.

Jesus once told his followers: "Do you think I have come to establish peace on the earth? The contrary is true: I have come for conflict and division." (Luke12:49) Conflict and confusion are often the avenue to a fuller faith. Such experiences may tell us that our previous faith is inadequate to deal with some new dimension of life. That earlier faith must now be reshaped, just as St. Paul's highly legalistic faith before his conversion from Judaism came into conflict with and was reshaped by his encounter with the early Christians.
