"For I too am a person subject to authority, with soldiers subject to me." Matthew 8:9a
Do we humble ourselves before the Lord? Do we only come to Him in our times of need or do we recognize Him in all that we do? I was a Eucharistic Minister yesterday and out of all those that received, there is one man that came forward and never looked up when he received Jesus. The word humility popped into my head as I handed him Jesus. Do we come to the Master with humility in our hearts and seek His divine intervention in our lives. Do we give Him total control of our lives or do we carry those things thinking we can handle it. Humble yourself before the Lord and give Him authority over you, let go of your pride and learn to walk in faith. It will stretch you but the feeling is exhilarating. Prepare for the coming of Christ this Advent season, invite Him in, in the mundane activities of everyday life.
Dear Lord God, it is a journey through time that we each have, our time is finite. Draw us closer to You each day. Strengthen our resolve to serve You and You alone. Open us up to the newness of each day and allow us to see the Gospels in our own daily walk. You walked with the Apostles, You also walk with us if we would humble ourselves, we can see You teaching us all the time. Prayers for Sean Walker and his family, may He be reclining at the banquet of the Kingdom of Heaven and May he Rest In Peace. Amen.
Mary, Mother of the Word Incarnate, pray for us.
