So it is that
"the blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians."– Catechism of the Catholic Church 849.
Our entire Christian community is
standing strong today because of the sacrifice of all the martyrs beginning
from the apostles to the saints to great people around the world.
Today people who honour all martyrs
are very few and also very few people understand the value of their blood.
Because of their sacrifice we can proudly say we are Christian.
In today’s world we find martyrs
very rare because most of us do not even know to manage small problems, when we
do not know to overcome problems then it is next to impossible to give our life
for the sake of kingdom of God.
We have to understand that the blood
of Jesus laid the foundation to the Church and the same zeal was spread across
the world with the blood of martyrs. God chose some great personalities to
become martyrs who were willing to die for the sake of Gospel.
In today’s world people are not
ready to bear the pain which is the consequences for their sin, so it is not
possible for them to bear pain for the sake of the kingdom of God.
Let us put our total confidence in
God and His Word so that we may be able to bear any pain, suffering, trials or
tribulations destined for us by God to take us on the journey of higher
calling.
In today’s world God may not need
martyrs like of old but He requires people who are ready to die for their
selfishness so that God can use them as His servant to proclaim His message to
the people around the world. In today’s world people are in want of the Word of
God but there is very few to make them understand well and also to guide them
in right path only because people who preach conversion of soul are very few in
numbers.
