1 - READ THE WORD
Do not fall asleep
“Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Romans 12:2

2 - Reflect
These days it is normal for me to look around and find people who are "asleep". Christians who have lost their will to help, who do not have solidarity for the reality that surrounds them and who are hostile to each other. Arguments or fights proliferate in each area: at work, in the streets, or even at home. We argue over trivialities, we get caught up in the most epic conversations without reaching common ground, and it happens because none of us can stop and remember our deep seated Christian values. We live so immersed in our routines, in our breakneck rhythms of life, that we forget to take a moment to reflect on what we do every day.
Taking time to speak with God in these times will be fundamental, because only He will bring us back to the divine path and to the glory and peace we need on our walk. If we continue to treat each other with violence or apathy, we will not be able to evolve as a society and to finally be able to live in communion as our Lord wants for us. Meditating on it will bring us calmness, but we must also collaborate as faithful servants of God and bring back those who have turned away from His Word.
