Synchronization
Current mood:  amused
Category: Writing and Poetry
Synchronization : comes from sýn (with) and chrónos (time).
Synchronization happens when things are coordinated at the same time.
When I woke up this morning, my mind was searching for some mystic thought to meditate on it. And I remembered this one :
"A holy man was walking through a desert. As it was hot, he was geting more and more thirsty until he raised his prayer to his God :
- My Lord, if you want me to die here in this desert then I let it be so.
Just after that, he heard the cockcrow. His heart jumped in happiness as he knew it meant there was a village very near. He found inside himself the strength to run to this village.
But when he arrived to this village, the people received him with rocks they threw to him. He had no choice but to run and leave this village.
Back into the desert and still thirsty he raised again his prayer to his God :
- What is that, my Lord? , he asked.
-When you're trusting in Me, answered the Holy Voice, I'm here to protect you. But when you're trusting in a cockcrow, you're receiving only what you deserve."
After that I spent time meditating on this mystic thought and, at the end of my day, I've been on a website called "Evangile au Quotidien" (Daily Gospel). On this website, everyone can read the official reading of the today Gospel. And here was the today Gospel :
Saint Matthew 14, 13-21
When Jesus heard of it, he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns.
When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick.
When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves."
(Jesus) said to them, "There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves."
But they said to him, "Five loaves and two fish are all we have here."
Then he said, "Bring them here to me,"
and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds.
They all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up the fragments left over --twelve wicker baskets full.
Those who ate were about five thousand men, not counting women and children.
As you can see, the Gospel of the day is also about feed and trust.
Synchronization between my soul and God's Word : it is not the first time that this is happening to me.
