Jesus inspired February 15th

 Blessed is he who perseveres in temptation,

for when he has been proven he will receive the crown of life  that he promised to those who love him. No one experiencing temptation should say,

“I am being tempted by God”;

for God is not subject to temptation to evil,

and he himself tempts no one.

Rather, each person is tempted when lured and enticed by his desire.

Then desire conceives and brings forth sin,

and when sin reaches maturity it gives birth to death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers and sisters:

all good giving and every perfect gift is from above,

coming down from the Father of lights,

He willed to give us birth by the word of truth(James 1:18)

Discern our feelings that is filling in us. Is it from our fleshly desires? Or is it bringing peace and goodness in us? Or causing us bad fruits of anger or frustration? 

God's inspirations will always be good loving forgiving humbling...

World's will be competing, greedy,selfish, desiring recognition

Through the word of God he is giving us new birth from old life of flesh..in this word God asks us to overcome temptation that arise from fleshly desires by his truth of light ... obedience to his word - Jesus

Cry to lord realising and repenting when our foot is slipping away from the gospel way...god's mercy will sustain us...cares abound within us.  His  comfort gladdens our soul.

Blessed is he who perseveres in temptation,

for when he has been proven he will receive the crown of life 

Blessed the man you instruct, O Lord.

When I say, “My foot is slipping,

            your mercy, O LORD, sustains me;

            When cares abound within me,

      your comfort gladdens my soul. (Psalms 94)

Whoever loves me will keep my word, says the Lord; and my Father will love him and we will come to him.( John 14:23 )

When we persevere to keep his word and be faithful to him beyond and amidst all temptation or challenges or suffering...the trinity will come and live in us building us up as his home by holy spirit.

Watch out,

guard against the leaven of the Pharisees

and the leaven of Herod.”  in us...(Mk 8:14-21)

the leaven of sin fleshly desires...

Do not be anxious of our daily providence.   God is taking care of us and will provide. We have to be careful only about our corrupted desires that make us sin. Let us pray to understand it and offer it in repentance for crushing our flesh and be born anew by god's word by our obedience..that each time we do this faithfully,we are molded as house of God by holy spirit.

Amen
