Ben Sira 6:10 3-1-2019 dailythoughts.com

"Others are friends, table companions, but they cannot be found in time of affliction." ‭‭Ben Sira‬ ‭6:10

Are you a table companion to Jesus?  Will you stick by His side in time of affliction?  Jesus will always be by your side, through thick and thin but will you reciprocate?  It is easy to pick things apart especially during these times.  It would appear that the attack is on all sides and now more than ever, your friend Jesus needs strong friends.  I see a world denying Him and their faith, not realizing the consequences on the next generation.  Little eyes are watching wondering is Jesus a friend to you.  Do you have the child like faith they have or has there been a wedge driven in because some person has failed.  It is not easy to watch others stumble in the darkness when Jesus is on the inside!

Dear Lord, I love You more than life itself, shine Your light into the darkness.  Emblazon us to build upon the rock, allow us to see Your friendship in our lives.  How You have never hurt us, it was someone not being guided by the love of Christ.  Awaken the faithful Father much like you did five years ago.  Thank You for the journey and the strength of Your Son Jesus in my heart.  Help me not curse the darkness but shine the light of Christ that is in need of a true friend, Jesus Christ.  To God be the Glory.  Amen.  

Mary, Our Lady of Victory, nurture our spirit.
