Daily Thoughts 1-6-2017 1 John 5:6

"This is the one who came through water and blood, Jesus Christ, not by water alone, but by water and blood. The Spirit is the one that testifies, and the Spirit is truth." ‭‭1 John‬ ‭5:6‬

Jesus comes to us through Baptism and through His sacrifice on Calvary.  You were baptized into the Kingdom of God what about your Calvary?  The trials and tribulations we face we have a choice to make, do we let them break us and our faith in God or do we do as Jesus does, look to the Father and seek His strength.  We must accept them and seek what is God wanting from you in them.  Jesus's first miracle was turning water into wine.  He is cleansing us of all attachments other than the Triune God.  Look for the transformation and prepare yourself for the resurrection.  "Whoever possesses the Son has life; whoever does not possess the Son of God does not have life." 1 John‬ ‭5:12‬.  "For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink." John‬ ‭6:55‬.  Jesus has to be on the inside and we must accept the things that come our way and rejoice.  Live with Christ on the inside and thank Him for all that comes your way.  

Dear Lord God, You show is how to live, You give us hope in the resurrection, You are changing us into the body and blood of Jesus.  Renew the Spirit within Lord and heal our afflictions, transform us from water into wine of new life.  Thank You Lord for the thorns that are causing discomfort, help me move beyond the distractions so I may only gaze upon You.  I ask this is Your Son's name, Jesus Christ.  Amen.  

Mary, Mother of Peace, pray for us.  

Prayers this morning for Carolyn, James and a little boy who has epilepsy.  May the wine of new life heal them from the inside out.  Amen.  




Greater is He who is in me, than he who is in the world.  1 John 4:4b
