Photo-vision: the 2nd Pentecost

The second Pentecost is coming soon! The coming of the Holy Spirit will "renew the face of the earth." It will be a time when the conscience of the world will be illumined. The Lord will let us see the condition of our souls. We will have great remorse for our sins when it comes. Many will die because of the immense sorrow that we will feel towards unconfessed sins we committed, including our Eucharistic irreverence and the questionable lifestyle we led. To lessen its impact upon us, we need to confess our sins, especially mortal sins, "lead good lives" and return to Eucharistic reverence before this time comes. Lucky are those who will die in mortal sins during The Warning (as the second Pentecost is also called) if they, before The Warning, are remembered in the prayers of remnant army intercessors because the prayers will save and send their souls to purgatory instead of hell. Those, on the other hand, who survive The Warning, will have great thirst for God; and a spiritual revival will take place on earth. Earlier in the afternoon, I visited the chapel of the Holy Spirit Adoration Convent in Bangkal, popularly known as the "Pink Sisters." After the Stations of the Cross were done, I snapped a photo of the "tongue of fire" marker with a white dove in the vicinity. Upon looking at the photo, only then did I notice the three almost-mist rays that emanate from above, resting on the white dove and the rest of the marker. It may be the reflection of the afternoon sunlight on the lens of the camera. Just the same, I call it photo-vision -- the photo-vision of the upcoming second Pentecost!
