No early mornings, no stressful schoolwork, tests, or exams. The break is a great time to play outside with your friends and siblings, in the garden or at the playground.<br data-start=\"6657\" data-end=\"6660\" \/>Discover the smallest creatures and flowers around you \u2013 bugs, plants, and blossoms. Remember, God created them all. Share the wonders you find in nature with your friends. Discover together the beauty of creation and the gifts God has given you.<br data-start=\"6906\" data-end=\"6909\" \/>And remember: God didn\u2019t only give you flowers and bugs, but also companions. Learn to find and appreciate the good qualities in your friends \u2013 and tell them about it!<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"7078\" data-end=\"7081\" \/>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1q37v9c\" data-start=\"7083\" data-end=\"7121\"><strong data-start=\"7087\" data-end=\"7119\">Reflections for Young People<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"7122\" data-end=\"7733\">Despite the hardships of life, Magdi always radiated joy and cheerfulness. Her joy came from the love of Jesus, and she sought to share it with others.<br data-start=\"7273\" data-end=\"7276\" \/>Jesus calls you, too, to a life of joy, where there is room for celebration, rest, and activity. Take a look at how you spend your time: do your activities bring true happiness?<br data-start=\"7453\" data-end=\"7456\" \/>Take time to write down your heart\u2019s desires on a sheet of paper. Reflect on what decisions you need to make to achieve them. Review this list each week. What has changed? What remains constant? Look at the things that change \u2013 are they truly important, or can you let them go?<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"7735\" data-end=\"7738\" \/>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"n2cjp5\" data-start=\"7740\" data-end=\"7774\"><strong data-start=\"7744\" data-end=\"7772\">Reflections for Families<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"7775\" data-end=\"8507\">Magdi\u2019s work with children brought her closer to the parents as well. She visited families, spoke with them, and helped where she could. Magdi recognized that marriage and the Christian family are part of God\u2019s holy plan.<br data-start=\"7996\" data-end=\"7999\" \/>The dynamics of a family change over time. It is good to pause and reflect together on how the family is functioning, where you stand, and where you may need to make changes.<br data-start=\"8173\" data-end=\"8176\" \/>A (walking) family pilgrimage can be a wonderful opportunity for this. Plan a destination together. Along the way, reflect on what changes or improvements you want to make, both individually and as a family. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you stay united and accept each other\u2019s different goals, as long as they align with God\u2019s will.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"8509\" data-end=\"8512\" \/>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"126i3j3\" data-start=\"8514\" data-end=\"8551\"><strong data-start=\"8518\" data-end=\"8549\">Reflections for the Elderly<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"8552\" data-end=\"9552\">Magdi deeply respected elderly people and valued their life experience. She had a special bond with Mrs. B\u00edr\u00f3 from F\u0171zf\u0151, whose advice and example inspired Magdi on her path of loving service.<br data-start=\"8744\" data-end=\"8747\" \/>Old age is marked by the wisdom of distinguishing between what is essential and what is not, and by the ability to avoid extremes.<br data-start=\"8877\" data-end=\"8880\" \/>Elderly people have learned how to wait, how to listen, and they appreciate the unique beauty of silence.<br data-start=\"8985\" data-end=\"8988\" \/>With these insights, look back on your life: what could you have done differently? Where have you made mistakes? Do not be afraid to ask forgiveness from others and from God.<br data-start=\"9162\" data-end=\"9165\" \/>If you can share your life experience with younger people, do so \u2013 it will help them. But if you cannot, or have no one to share it with, then tell it to Jesus, who is with you even in your pain.<br data-start=\"9360\" data-end=\"9363\" \/>He, though the Son of God, experienced loneliness, pain, disappointment, and abandonment as a human being. Jesus becomes your companion in bearing your burdens \u2013 so you will never be alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Reflections for Children Magdi loved children deeply and often played with them \u2013 running, jumping, and picking flowers.Now it\u2019s summer!
