Human Formation

Sem. Carl Joshua 

A triggering impact of fraternal correction shows when someone does undesirable things. Fraternal correction is very significant in terms of the seminary formation. We value fraternal correction as it gives practice for self-improvement, maturity, and humility. We certainly correct each other for us to grow in the formation. I also experience being corrected. There are times that I do not listen and times that I listen. Realizing the fruit of fraternal corrections when I allow myself not only to open my eyes, or to hear but most especially is to listen. Hearing is opposed to listening. Hearing happens every second, every minute and every hour, through the various noise and sound in our surroundings. Listening happens when we realize, value and put time and effort into what we hear.
Listening is higher than hearing. Listening is higher than refusing. 
To be well-formed, I should follow, listen and put effort to improve in every aspect of life.
