SERVE FROM YOUR HEART AS FOR LORD.

Eventhough some are not named Christians(sons of lord) when they find favour in lord,they shall inherit the sonship. Lord looks into our hearts.

"A slave who deals wisely will rule over a child who acts shamefully,
 and will share the inheritance as one of the family.The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold,but the Lord tests the heart."( Proverbs 17:2-3)

Obey our earthly elders. Serve them not for pleasing them and securing our good name. But serve as for lord. Seek his wish in all we do and do it as he says..lord looks into our heart.

Serve them as they are given to us by our father to mold us. Let his plans on us work.

Treat all our youngers fairly as lord treats you in compassion. No mayter how big we are or small..the lord of everyone is same and unique.

" Slaves, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as you obey Christ;  not only while being watched, and in order to please them, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart.Render service with enthusiasm, as to the Lord and not to men and women,
knowing that whatever good we do, we will receive the same again from the Lord, whether we are slaves or free.And, masters, do the same to them. Stop threatening them, for you know that both of you have the same Master in heaven, and with him there is no partiality."
(Ephesians 6:5-9)

How can we be filled with this virtues? We human-self cant attain it..we attain it through..precious blood of jesus unending eligibility

 " God of peace, who brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,  make you complete in everything good so that you may do his will, working among us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen."(Hebrews13:20-21)

Pray and purify ourselves in blood of christ every moment of our life. Because it is the ransom lord paid for our life. To deliver us from fleshly desires and set us free to walk in lord.

 if we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.1 John 1:7

Prayer
by the precious blood of Jesus,  the eternal covenant,  make uscomplete in everything good so that we may do lords will, working among us that which is pleasing in your sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

May the Precious Blood that pours out from the Sacred Head of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Temple of Divine Wisdom, Tabernacle of Divine Knowledge and Sunshine of heaven and earth, cover us now and forever. Amen. 

Precious Blood of Jesus save us and the whole world

Lets not Judge

Do we see someone being criticized? Someone being mocked or isolated? Do we judge someone? Do we see someone suffering?

Let us remember this verses
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”(john 12:32) They will look on the one whom they have pierced.”(john 19:37)

Yes these people attracts the attention of many..may be of an area or of a nation. It will lead many to prayers ..many to remember their own character. They are too lifted up..and we see son of god in them. Hence let us remember when we judge someone,we are like Judas who betrays lord ,exposing him to be attacked..when we praise ourselves and become proud of ourselves we are becoming like Peter who rejected Jesus for his own safety. Be aware when we judge others,we are judging Jesus and we are exposing ourselves to be jugdged.

Let us seek mercy from lord to repent for the times we have judged others and pray for His grace to control our thoughts and tongue especially during this lent to stop judging others and thus stop paining our lord. Lord have mercy on us and give us your love through holy spirit that when thoughts of judging comes into our mind give that person, that we are tempted to judge, double the blessings. Let Jesus be reflected in others when we see them. In Jesus powerful name we pray Amen.

Lent Day 5 - Blocks of Grace in us

 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, crying loudly, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” 28 When he entered the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Lord.” 29 Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you.” 30 And their eyes were opened. (Matthew 9 :27-30)

As we wait for gods grace that allow us to surrender. We often realize the abundant mercy of our lord. It is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God (Eph 2:8). No one comes to me unless father attracts to me.

We encounter in this lot of blocks(sin selfishness pride unforgiveness) that hinder the flow of grace of god. It is the Holy spirit our helper who helps us to realuze this blocks. But we must have the thirst to seek it. Lord is ready waiting to pour out his grace but he needs our yes..our yes not to tell..yes lord pour...but our yes that i am ready to do ur will..do it according to thy word. We cant remove our blocks by self but we must realize this fact and cry out lord apart from you i cant..thrz no good in me..help me lord..cure me deliver me..lord says..yes i can ..i am ready to deliver you..but do you believe that i can?do u have faith?..

Then let it be..let ur faith save u..go in peace..

Its our YES in realizing our nothingness and YES in lords will to be done in us that gods grace can pour into us.. but we must value this above everything in our life..never be like Esau who sold the sonship for a bowl of porridge..never compromise lords love and mercy or will for our momentory worldly joy. If in any time holy spirit inspires us lords will in any of our case..even if we find it hard..do only lords will..lord has given us power to overcome all temptations that lead to block of grace..

So let us say..Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; but only speak the word, and my soul will be healed..

Lent Day 4- "My Grace is enough"

My grace is enough

  "Therefore, to keep me from being too elated, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me, to keep me from being too elated. 8 Three times I appealed to the Lord about this, that it would leave me, 9 but he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. "
2 Corinthians 127-9

Finding hard to surrender? The more we try to surrender our cravings or life, the more we find ourselves failing. We decide not to shout at anyone in a day but find ourselves the most shouting in that particular day. This is because we get tempted in areas we try to surrender to lord or try to recover from.  "Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?  Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! " (Romans 17)yes only Christ can save us..His grace is enough. Hence instead if trying to fight alone..let us pray for grace of god to overcome our weaknesses.

Pray for lords grace..He says "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” ...whenever I am weak, then I am strong.(2corinthians 12:9). This realization will always keep us humble. We can never be perfect alone but only in Him. The purpose of Our weaknesses ,when revealed by lord helps us from the sin of pride. In all times draw more closer to lord pray for His grace without which we are nothing.

Lord fill us with your grace. Help us to remain humble so that not our pride but your power is manifested through us . Amen

Lent Day 3 - Find Rest

Find Rest

28 “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”- Matthew 11:26-28

As we surrender all and ourselves unto Him..the peace of mind that fills in us..the rest to which we are entering...is unexplainable. As a child depends on the parents..as a baby clings to its mother..so we must;to our lord.

He asks us to surrender our loads unto him and take His Yoke and learn from Him... learn to be gentle and humble in heart, as He is..and then we will find rest for our souls.
Our only duty is to learn from him..to be gentle and humble. Jesus has given us the perfect model. As He lived..obeying what father said..

Lord Jesus help us to find rest as you did in Father.  Turn us to lear  from you to bear the light Yoke of humblness and gentleness in all we are. Amen

Lent Day 2 - Set Priority

Peter began to say to Jesus,
'We have given up everything and followed you."
Jesus said, "Amen, I say to you,
there is no one who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands
for my sake and for the sake of the Gospel who will not receive a hundred times more now in this present age: houses and brothers and sisters
and mothers and children and lands,
with persecutions, and eternal life in the age to come. But many that are first will be last, and the last will be first.
- Mark 10:28-31

Thank you lord for helping us to realize the possessions that keeps us away from your fullness of joy.

Today help us to set priority..the priority of perfect satisfaction and thats You Lord.

Let us list down all our possessions and against it write "my lord is greater than this". As we do this let the holy spirit fill in us and give us the realization that..Our Lord is able to do far more than we can imagine . The only thing i should do is Trust in Him, put lord first in all. Seek him not for the perishable blessings but in love that He gave himself for us to be saved forever.

He who has God has everything; he who has everything but God has nothing. – St. Augustine

The scripture doesnt mean to abandon our family..but to accept all we have from lords hands in thanksgiving setting Lord as authority of all so that the world or evil cannot snatch it from us as Lord the powerful is our owner.

Trusting and living only for this world means our dreams are shortlived and unsatisfied. Trusting in god and living for Him means our dreams are reaching heaven with a reward of eternity. Let us make lord our authority and this we do by giving thanks..

Offer to God praise as your sacrifice
and fulfill your vows to the Most High.He that offers praise as a sacrifice glorifies me;and to him that goes the right way I will show the salvation of God."(Psalms 50:14,23)

Lord we give you thanks in everything. Help us to always realize you are our owner..
Amen

Lent Day 1- The Possessions

Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said to him,
"You are lacking in one thing.
Go, sell what you have, and give to the poor
and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me."
At that statement, his face fell,
and he went away sad, for he had many possessions.

Jesus looked around and said to his disciples,
"How hard it is for those who have wealth
to enter the Kingdom of God!"
The disciples were amazed at his words.
So Jesus again said to them in reply,
"Children, how hard it is to enter the Kingdom of God!
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle
than for one who is rich to enter the Kingdom of God."
They were exceedingly astonished and said among themselves,
"Then who can be saved?"
Jesus looked at them and said,
"For men it is impossible, but not for God.
All things are possible for God."- mark 10:17-27


Let us reflect on our life. List out what we say its mine or i earned..or what we say i cant stay without it or i cant share or let others to have..

 What are our possessions that keep us away to come to fullness of joy in lord?  Our time?our selfishness? Love of authority?  This lenten time let us submit it to lord and repent and approach the sacrament of confession because for his grace and mercy will only free us from it. Let us experience the freedom in Lord. All to Jesus I surrender...

All to jesus i surrender..

" For men it is impossible, but not for God.All things are possible for God."
Lord have mercy. Amen

Give thanks and glory to God by submiting us and all we have. Submit it in the Holy Mass as our offering. All for glory and honour of our dear Abba Father.

The Joyful Mystery in our Life

1. The Annunciation

The angel appeared to Mary and said “Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you.”29 But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. 30 The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus. 32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David. 33 He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.” 34 Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I am a virgin?” 35 The angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be holy; he will be called Son of God. 36 And now, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month for her who was said to be barren. 37 For nothing will be impossible with God.” 38 Then Mary said, “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her. (luke 1:27-38)

Now let us come to our life, when a challenging incident happens in our life, which is beyond the normal course of happenings, we get exposed to many vulnerabilities. Mary too was exposed to such a challenge; beyond laws and that too a woman whose marriage was fixed and in a society in which a law existed of stoning to death a lady who get pregnant before marriage. But she gave time to listen to the message and presented her doubts to the messenger. ' how can this be?'. The angel replied, ' The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you'. Yes in situations of trials and challenges, this is what our mentality must be. A mentality to listen and to be patient submitting our concerns unto the lord. Whatever the challenge be, wait for the power of the Holy Spirit to fill in us by submitting ourselves “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.”

The word come into us with the power of Holy Spirit. As it comes into us lord points us to a situation as a proof for the same. May be it is a vision or and incident which we must go in search of for clarification. Lord sends us immediately to somewhere to witness as a proof of what he has entrusted.

2. Mary Set out to serve Elizabeth, whom God gave to Mary as a proof. Even though Mary was was in health she set out to serve Elizabeth.

Immediately as we receive the word the Holy Spirit fills in us and lord directs us for a mission. This mission will be a proof for us for Lords intervention in our life. So never hesitate to take it up.

It was Mary's presence that Elizabeth realized or comprehended the sprouting up of Lords word made flesh in Mary and in turn Elizabeth was filled in Holy Spirit and her baby bounced in her womb.

Thus the mission that lord gives immediately or the person that lord make us to meet after the word begin to grow in us, will be a source through whom we realize that Gods word in us is growing or present truly. This in turn will fill them with holy spirit.

Mary (-Humble and accepting the dynamic power of the Holy spirit) Elizabeth (- smeared with laws and traditions with a less opening to the dynamic works of Holy Spirit). When they both met, the holy spirit began to flow between each, their meeting changed the scenario resulting in flow of holy spirit between them.

3. Mary giving birth to Jesus in a stable and witnessing the visit of shepherds and wisemen. She pondered everything in heart and sat silently

Now Lord sends us through many hard ways for giving Jesus to the world. This must occur in a very humble scenario. The word made flesh must be given to the world in a scene like that of a stable. People who are searching Jesus in truth will surely reach there.

And the mode of delivery must be humility and silence. Reflect Jesus through us and in our life so that when people see us ,they meet Jesus. When they experience Jesus through us, they go joyfully praising and glorifying...don’t be proud or feel superior but be life mother Mary, who in humbleness sat serene and silent pondering everything in her heart. The visitors or people who come or god lead to us can be humble like shepherd or superior like wise men.

4. Mother Mary and Joseph presents Jesus to temple for purification according to law of Moses

The birth of the word in us and from us must be in accordance with the teachings of the Church and it laws. All the word we deliver /all the ministries that we are involved in to give Christ must be submited for purification in the church.

There will be people waiting in the church to reveal us about the word of god born in us..its fate and how we have to deal with. Church and its anointed priests are our direction

5. Finding of Jesus in the temple

As we move along the life of delivering word of God, we may come to a point in our life that we become mechanical. We go on delivering go by our mouth, when the actual presence of word has gone from our hearts. Like Jesus was lost from Mother and Joseph. We may think he is with us but when disturbance being to set in our life..go in our deep, search we can find him missing from our heart. At this point of time, lord directs us to go back to Church and receive Jesus back through Holy mass and teaching from Priests.

Always stay attached to church to always keep in with the main stem -Jesus

Amen

"By your perseverance you will secure your lives"

"they will seize and persecute you,
they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons,
and they will have you led before kings and governors because  of my name. It will lead to your giving testimony. Remember, you are not to prepare your defense beforehand,
for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your  adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute. 
You will even be handed over by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will put some of you to death.  You will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed.
By your perseverance you will secure your lives.”- Luke 21:12-19

Lord help us to put trust in you in all our happy times or ,troubles . Give us grace to set our goal on what is eternal and not on perishable world. Help us submit to your wisdom and proceed in life. We pray for the gift of perseverance. 
"for the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. "(-1 John 4:4)..the one in us says... In the world you face persecution. But take courage; I have conquered the world!”(John 16:33).
Mother Mary pray for us. In the name of father son and holy spirit,amen.

“Lord, please let me see.”

They told him,“Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”
He shouted, “Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!”
The people walking in front rebuked him,telling him to be silent,but he kept calling out all the more,
“Son of David, have pity on me!”
Then Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to him;
and when he came near, Jesus asked him,
“What do you want me to do for you?”
He replied, “Lord, please let me see.”
Jesus told him, “Have sight; your faith has saved you.”He immediately received his sight and followed him, giving glory to God.
When they saw this, all the people gave praise to God.-Luke 18:35-43

Often in our lifes' we loose sight of Jesus and become blind amidst this worldly rushes. But as we hear voices so different standing out from these crowds let us seek and realize; that Jesus is passing by. No matter how strongly the world pulls us back and holds us from calling Jesus, just cry out " JESUS Son of David, have mercy on me!" Jesus will bring us out of it and will ask "What do you want me to do for you?”...

Shall we cry out now? Where ever we are now just call in our mind ..and..
pray:-

JESUS JESUS JESUS..have mercy on me..i went away from you please have mercy on me..YES we can hear Him asking now "What do you want me to do for you?”...let us ask in faith.. "Lord, please let me see"..open the eyes of my heart lord..i want to see you..he will reveal his heart given for us..that takes deep to our Fathers love..
 
Lets us now give glory to our lord for this love so that all who see us praise God for this mercy and love.

In the name of the father son and holy spirit Amen.

"Yet I hold this against you:
you have lost the love you had at first.Realize how far you have fallen.
Repent, and do the works you did at first." Revelations 3:4-5

Prayer for Peace

Oh father you stand with open hands waiting to receive your children back to your love no matter how they are ; for you so loved this world that that you gave your only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.“Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him."(John 3:16-17). You reconciled us to you regarding not our sins . In thy mercy fill us with your peace and unity according to Your Will: Reconcile us with one another, that we may be reconciled with you through Jesus. Jesus Christ, prince of peace Who said to Your Apostles: " Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid "(John14:27)May your spirit reign in our hearts, so that we be witnesses to the peace you give to all the world. Guide us in the way of your peace so that we become the instrument of your peace.. as we pray with Francis Assisi..   Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace!That where there is hatred, I may bring love.That where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness.That where there is discord, I may bring harmony.That where there is error, I may bring truth.That where there is doubt, I may bring faith.That where there is despair, I may bring hope.That where there are shadows, I may bring light.That where there is sadness, I may bring joy. Lord, grant that I may seek rather to comfort, than to be comforted. To understand, than to be understood. To love, than to be loved. For it is by self-forgetting that one finds. It is by forgiving that one is forgiven. It is by dying that one awakens to Eternal Life. We submit the nations with unrest, the anti religious spirits, unto your mercy fill with your peace. our rulers , job areas, our families children and youth..unto your mercy..fill with your peace. lord send forth your spirit and renew the face of the earth.

“forgive us our sins as we forgive those who trespass against us”

"while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him and he sat down and began to teach them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them, they said to him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” They said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground. When they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders; and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. Jesus straightened up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, sir.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.”

                                                                                                                        - John 8:1-11

Reflection:

When people have done something wrong to us we often feel angry and want them to be punished, don’t we? But in today’s gospel Jesus teaches us that this isn’t always the right way. After all, none of us are perfect.

Through today's story God makes us realize that, when we start complaining about others, God will prompt us to see within ourselves. Are we worthy to judge others? We all are weak by ourselves, being sinners by ourselves, we are not able to judge others. The lord teaches us this prayer “forgive us our sins as we forgive those who trespass against us”. Hence we must forgive others, then only our heavenly Father will forgive us as we forgave others.

This is what happened in today's story. A woman who did wrong was brought in front of Jesus by people who thought themselves to be noble and good. They proved their points bringing to light the laws given by forefather Moses in-order to trap Jesus. But Jesus dealt with them very wisely. He didn't respond immediately. But waited for a while, may be He was praying to God, to give Him wisdom to deal with the situation and then He replied “Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” No one dared to throw. Jesus gave a chance to the people to look into themselves how unrighteous are they themselves while condemning the woman.

Later He asked the woman “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”

She said, “No one, sir.”

Then Jesus replied “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again.” He made the woman too realize that she has done wrong, but now the Lord has seen her tears and forgiven her, but never sin anymore.

We have all done things wrong. Can you think of a time when you did something wrong? Don’t say it out loud, but keep it in your heads. How did it feel when you knew you had done something wrong? What happened next? Did you get told off? How did it feel when you had said sorry, and been forgiven? Will you try not to do whatever it was again?

Jesus asks us not to judge people who have done something wrong, because we all do wrong things sometimes. Instead we should try to forgive others, as God forgives us. But we should also try to help them see that they need to change, so that they no longer do what is wrong .Lord sees our sincere tears of repentance. He always wishes that His children realize their wrong doings and return to Him asking pardon so that He can forgive them and remind them that to remain in lord always and never do wrong any more. He also wishes that His children forgive others and pray for them for Lord mercy so that they are led to God who can forgive their sins.

Prayer.

God of love, you forgive us when we go wrong, and encourage us to try again to be better. Help us to do the same to our friends and others so that we never judge others. Jesus help us to help each other be good instead of being mean to each other. Amen.

“Yet even now, says the Lord, return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; rend your hearts and not your clothing. Return to the Lord, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and relents from punishing”- Joel 2:12-13

Reading

Luke 6:37-42

“A time to keep silent, and a time to speak” - Ecclesiates 3:7

Praise the Lord,

"The Philistines drew up in line against Israel, and when the battle spread, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who slew about four thousand men on the field of battle. 3 And when the troops came to the camp, the elders of Israel said, "Why has the LORD put us to rout today before the Philistines? Let us bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD here from Shiloh, that he may come among us and save us from the power of our enemies." 4So the people sent to Shiloh, and brought from there the ark of the covenant of the LORD of hosts, who is enthroned on the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phin'ehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God. 5When the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel gave a mighty shout, so that the earth resounded. 6And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shouting, they said, "What does this great shouting in the camp of the Hebrews mean?" And when they learned that the ark of the LORD had come to the camp, 7the Philistines were afraid; for they said, "A god has come into the camp." And they said, "Woe to us! For nothing like this has happened before. 8Woe to us! Who can deliver us from the power of these mighty gods? These are the gods who smote the Egyptians with every sort of plague in the wilderness. 9Take courage, and acquit yourselves like men, O Philistines, lest you become slaves to the Hebrews as they have been to you; acquit yourselves like men and fight." 10So the Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated, and they fled, every man to his home; and there was a very great slaughter, for there fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldiers. 11And the ark of God was captured; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phin'ehas, were slain." 1 Samuel 4:1-11

And a leper came to him beseeching him, and kneeling said to him, "If you will, you can make me clean." 41Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him, and said to him, "I will; be clean." 42And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean. 43And he sternly charged him, and sent him away at once, 44and said to him, "See that you say nothing to any one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to the people." 45But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in the country; and people came to him from every quarter.-Mark 1:40-45

Sometimes our Lord asks us to be silent about the great miracle or power He has manifested to us. He wishes us to submit it to Altar for purification from all human influences of pride and popularity through it and to give glory and authority to Lord Almighty. But we get trapped in over excitement of the miracle or manifestation that has happened shifting our focus to the glory of miracle rather than giving glory to the one who is the reason for it. This in turn pushes out our Lord from us and  He is no longer able to stay due to the pride and human glorification..rendering hearts to seek for miracles than Lords presence and love.

This shift of glory to works and manifestations than to lord will soon trap us in worldly emotions and depressions once it fails..because we forgot the source of it and without source miracles never exist.

Hence lets realize manifestations of lords power in us is to bring us to deep faith in Him and to get us more closer to Him. As this happen in our lives,let us submit it in Altar and give glory to Lord first.."Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, so that he may exalt you in due time."(1 Peter 5:6)
So it does not agitate the feelings of the weak who has not grown to experience lords works and will not trap us in pride and popularity that hides off glory of God and shatters His plans through it.

"When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them.  But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart."- Luke 2:18-19

 Let us submit to Lord to manifest Himself through us in the time that He wishes so that it strikes the target souls in right time and accomplishes Lords plan perfectly.

Prayer
Thank you for all your manifestations through our lives. We submit everything for your glory and authority. Help us to remain humble and calm till You chooses us to testimony for You through us. Give us wisdom lord for not falling into traps that evil has set up to snatch us, your children, to crush your glory.

In the name of father son and holy spirit amen.

"How many loaves have you? Go and see." ...

Praise Lord and Glory to Him Always..

Mark 6:34-44 says,

As he went ashore, he saw a great crowd; and he had compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things. 35 When it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, “This is a deserted place, and the hour is now very late; 36 send them away so that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy something for themselves to eat.” 37 But he answered them, “You give them something to eat.” They said to him, “Are we to go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give it to them to eat?” 38 And he said to them, “How many loaves have you? Go and see.” When they had found out, they said, “Five, and two fish.” 39 Then he ordered them to get all the people to sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in groups of hundreds and of fifties. 41 Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; and he divided the two fish among them all. 42 And all ate and were filled; 43 and they took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and of the fish. 44 Those who had eaten the loaves numbered five thousand men.

While reading through this scripture passage the Holy Spirit revealed a message from the Lord Almighty: The essence of Evangelisation is in us, fetch it from with in us, submit to lord and he shall multiply it for us and give us to distribute to the multitudes that are thirsty for a shepherd's protection and were like sheep without a shepherd

Evangelisation is a consequence and not a program. It must start within us. This is what Our Lord shows us through this story. When the disciples find that the crowd is tired and hungry, they search for an easy way to feed them. They ask Jesus to send them to nearby towns to find food by themselves,when Jesus said “You give them something to eat" and then the disciples said that they will themselves go to another towns and buy food and come. But Jesus replies in an amazing way“How many loaves have you? Go and see." He asks to find out what do they have within themselves. This is when the disciples put effort to search and find out what is there within among themselves. The disciples submitted what they got,(even though it was very little compared to the crowd to provide them), to Jesus. Jesus asked the disciples to " get all the people to sit down in groups on the green grass".

After the crowd was put in order, Jesus took the few what the disciples had submitted and " he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; and he divided the two fish among them all. And all ate and were filled". This is Evangelisation.

No matter how little we have within ourselves, without pondering over the little we have,or how weak it is or how less it is, do not worry about that little, instead set Hope on the God who can multiply. He gives us multiplied to distribute to all His children who are hungry and thirsty for Lords love. We often give up in our efforts or find easy ways to fill the hunger of ourselves or of our friends who are in a lost state or in some kind of emptiness or is approaching us for help. But through this story Lord asks to search and put effort to find out what is available in you. As you find them out, submit it to the Lord who is able to make abundance from the little you submit unto Him. And then He shall give them into your hands to distribute to thousands...

There is a duty for each one of us who are called in Jesus name to be the Children of God the Father. He has given us many gifts and talents. This could be unveiled only if we put effort and obey through Lord direction and help. Once it is revealed submit it to Lord who will multiply and give to you. This is multiplied and given to you as blessings to feed the sheep, His children who is in need and who is in front of you and whom you meet day by day.

" Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received.(1 Peter 4:10). " This service springs out from our hearts only if we hear Lords voice saying "“Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my lambs.” 16 A second time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Tend my sheep.” 17 He said to him the third time, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter felt hurt because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?” And he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep.(John 21:15-17)"

Instead of Simon's name let us put our name and read this verses.

Because Lord has said "Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God, and he who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God; for God is love.(1John 4:7-8)"

Prayer

Bless it lord, purify it and multiply it. Give us wisdom to understand the purpose of blessing us and to share you love and blessings with those whom you show us ,all in glory of Your name"
Amen.

 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.(Colossians 3:17)

Be Confident on God more than Ourselves.

Our Lord knows us more than we know ourselves..Amen
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,and before you were born I consecrated you;(Jeremiah 1:5)
For it was you who formed my inward parts;    you knit me together in my mother’s womb.(Psalms 139:13-14)
My frame was not hidden from you,when I was being made in secret,    intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

16 Your eyes beheld my unformed substance.In your book were written    all the days that were formed for me,    when none of them as yet existed.-(Psalms 139:15-16)

And God,who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose. -Romans 8:27-28

O Lord, you have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;  you discern my thoughts from far away.
You search out my path and my lying down,    and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue,    O Lord, you know it completely. You hem me in, behind and before,    and lay your hand upon me.(Psalms 139:1-5)

Our Lord always is watching over us. He is pained when we go away, because He cant do nothing unless WE decide to have Him in us. But He stands like a helpless father seeing His kid going to danger. He never compels us but wants us wholesomely .
No matter how far we went from Lord because of our own selfish sinful life..Our Lord is waiting for us to return. The moment we get the realization that we are far from Lord or the way we are is not right- YES this is the time our Lord is waiting eagerly for us to run back to Him. 

He has opened us the way to salvation- JESUS CHRIST, we simply just want to run back..realizing the bondage's that took us away from His love.. focusing on JESUS and believing in the way of salvation. 

EVen if we feel so bad about our ways and even if we loose our hope--our Lord says 'I AM WITH YOU  and  I HAVE COME NOT TO CONDEMN THE WORLD BUT TO GIVE LIFE ABUNDANTLY"

 But law came in, with the result that the trespass multiplied; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,  so that, just as sin exercised dominion in death, so grace might also exercise dominion through justification leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.-Romans 5:20-21

 Therefore repent and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped out, that seasons of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,-Acts 3:19

Lets be honest to our Creator who is calling us back for the eternal joy. Let us seek his help to overcome all the temptations that fails us to get His love. let us thirst for the filling of the Holy Spirit who helps us to tide over and take decisions in accordance to Gods wish. Let us not pain Him anymore. Let us hear the voice of Lord through this Spirit and be able to crucify all our worldly passions to the cross of Jesus.

I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.- Galatians 2:20

 But the Advocate,the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of all that I have said to you.-John 14:26

For those who put trust on Lord will never be put to shame but their face will be radiant in Lords light.
Look to him, and be radiant;
    so your  faces shall never be ashamed.
6 This poor soul cried, and was heard by the Lord,
    and was saved from every trouble.
7 The angel of the Lord encamps
    around those who fear him, and delivers them -Psalms 34:5-7

Keep your tongue from evil,
    and your lips from speaking deceit.
14 Depart from evil, and do good;
    seek peace, and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
    and his ears are open to their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against evildoers,
    to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears,
    and rescues them from all their troubles.
18 The Lord is near to the brokenhearted,
    and saves the crushed in spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
    but the Lord rescues them from them all.
20 He keeps all their bones;
    not one of them will be broken.
21 Evil brings death to the wicked,
    and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
22 The Lord redeems the life of his servants;
    none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.-Psalms 34:13-22

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.- John 1:1-5

Even if we are feeling lifeless due to our life or lost- take out the word of God which is our life, read it and use it and meditate it- it is our life ,our medicine, our hope and the voice of Lord. It speaks to us every time we read it- the living word. it has answers that God gives us, direction that god shows us and plans that God prepares us for. This is our daily bread. 

How can young people keep their way pure?
    By guarding it according to your word.
10 With my whole heart I seek you;
    do not let me stray from your commandments.
11 I treasure your word in my heart,
    so that I may not sin against you.
12 Blessed are you, O Lord;
    teach me your statutes.
13 With my lips I declare
    all the ordinances of your mouth.
14 I delight in the way of your decrees
    as much as in all riches.
15 I will meditate on your precepts,
    and fix my eyes on your ways.
16 I will delight in your statutes;
    I will not forget your word.

17 Deal bountifully with your servant,
    so that I may live and observe your word-Psalms 119:9-17

God who created all things;  so that through the church the wisdom of God in its rich variety might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places.  This was in accordance with the eternal purpose that he has carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord,  in whom we have access to God in boldness and confidence through faith in him. I pray therefore that you[f] may not lose heart over my sufferings for you; they are your glory.

 Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.(Ephesians 3:1-21)

Can a woman forget her nursing child,
    or show no compassion for the child of her womb?
Even these may forget,
    yet I will not forget you.See, I have inscribed you on the palms of my hands,.- Isaiah 49:15-16

"YOU ARE MINE"- says the LORD. 

Praise Lord.
