"Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your mat, and walk."" John 5:8
Does God ration His gift of the Holy Spirit? NO. We are all given the same portion, how we respond is our gift back to God, it is our "YES" to Him. How many of us sit still wishing to go forward while seeing someone else going forward, what's the difference. Action, acceptance, belief, desire, willing, fear, doubt, shame. These all play a role in moving. If the lame man did not decide to move he would still be lame. It is our response that makes the difference. He had faith in what Jesus told him and He got up. His mind may have told him you have been lame all your life but faith told him to believe, to accept the word of God. "For the one whom God sent speaks the words of God. He does not ration his gift of the Spirit."
John 3:34. You have the same gift of the Spirit as the lame man on the mat, rise up and walk in faith. You are who God says you are, His child.
Dear Lord God, I am who you say I am, the child of the King, chosen by You for Your purpose. Increase in me what You desire, place hope in my life that moves me, grow my faith to help others. Unleash my unused potential to make a difference in this world. I want what You want, a Holy Fire burning that will not be stopped until Your return. Bless this day Lord and thank You for the little faith that is growing. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.
