A Tribute to JC

iThank you for feet to follow you wherever you lead. . . So be it John 21:18 in my life!

This very day iUnderstand Revealed in worship and by hearing of God's Word (1 Corinthians):

1. We have received every spiritual gift in Christ Jesus.

2. God keeps us strong.

3. We have unlimited access to God through Christ Jesus.

For me, it's a reminder of God's faithfulness to guide us step-by-step like a GPS system.

- his spiritual Gifts

- his Presence

- his Strength

Even better than a cat, he gave us His Son so that we may have opened ears to hear. See also John 10:27

Sight

So spiritual and physical sight comes straight from the hand of God. Both are good gifts. One temporal. One eternal.

We need Christ to see. He gives sight to the blind. He reveals that which is hidden (including his glory).

Matthew 11: 27
All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Do you want to know more?

Come to him.

Matthew 11: 28-30
"Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 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. For my yoke is easy , and my burden is light."

John 8: 31b-32
"if you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."

Isaiah 48: 6
You have heard; now see all this; from this time forward I make you hear new things, hidden things that you have not known.

Job

Agree with God, and be at peace; in this way good will come to you. Receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart. If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored, if you remove unrighteousness from your tents, if you treat gold like dust, and the gold of Ophir like stones of the torrent-bed, and if the Almighty is your gold and your precious silver, then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and lift up your face to God. You will pray to him, and he will hear you, and you will pay your vows. You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you, a light will shine on your ways." Job 22: 21 - 28

My Prayer for US

Lord God Almighty - Bring US to our knees.

My Deliverer

The good news is that Jesus Christ delivers us from our sin, addictions, and torment. We don't have to live with these things, be bound to behavior modification plans or submit to somebody else's rules for our lives. Only Jesu Christo. He sets us free.
