+ Jesus speaks words of woe to those who take away “the key of knowledge”:
“You yourselves did not enter
and you stopped those trying to enter.” This is a primary example of unbridled
mean-spiritedness. This is unconscionable. This seems to be prevalent in our
American society today.
What saves us from succumbing
t this? Actively living the memory that we have been blessed “in Christ with
every spiritual blessing.” Counting our blessings is not only for when you
can’t sleep; but it for any time of the day as well when we overdue to
re prioritize our thoughts, words and deeds. The good thing is that we can
“start our day over again” any moment we want to.
“Jesus chose us to be holy and
without blemish,” “In love he destined us for adoption to himself.” Let us
enter into this grace, bask in it and then radiate the joy and peace it
produces to all those God will put in our path this day!
God chose us for our
particular life and work before the foundation of the world – and he empowers
us to do every dot and tittle of it!
Amen.
