Daily Thoughts 12-27-2017 1 John 1:1-2

"What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we looked upon and touched with our hands concerns the Word of life— for the life was made visible; we have seen it and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life that was with the Father and was made visible to us—" ‭‭1 John‬ ‭1:1-2‬

Do you see the transformation of John the fisherman to John the disciple and Apostle of Jesus.  John lived his life walking and learning from God and over time he sees the mystery of faith.  He broke bread with Jesus, they laughed and hung out together.  Through this relationship God reveals Himself to John in such a way to help us see God from the beginning of creation.  God did not have to step into time but He does, in hopes that you will see the light, in hopes that you will be transformed into a new creation as the Apostle John was.  

Come Holy Spirit and transform us into living, acting, dedicated disciples filled with Your Spirit.  Live within me and create a place for You to reside with me all the time.  Open Your word and reveal its truth to me so I too may be like Saint John and speak with conviction and zeal to help others see the Living Christ.  I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.  

Mary, Gate of Heaven, pray for us.  

Saint John, pray for us.
