John 8:28 4-9-2019 www.dailythoughts.com

"So Jesus said [to them], "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I AM, and that I do nothing on my own, but I say only what the Father taught me."
‭‭John‬ ‭8:28‬

Day 34 of our Lenten journey: Jesus spoke plainly to those around Him but all they seen was His humanity.  They could not see His divinity until He was on the cross and had died for our sins.  What do you see when you look upon the cross?  This morning I see Christ's humanity, His efforts to get people to understand only for them to not see.  I am sure there are things He is saying that I am not getting but that doesn't prevent Christ from continuing until I do.  Do you look to the cross and contemplate Christ journey with you?

Dear Jesus, I do not always understand my own journey but You always know what is needed to build our relationship.  I pray for those who are closed to the truth, who do not see that You are the Son of God.  I pray for my own humanity and my blindness to our journey.  Help me be the person that You desire me to be.  I pray for a friend who recently had his hip replaced, I also pray for a friend with some heart issues, may they feel the healing power of God upon them.   I thank You for the desire to know You more and more each day.  In Jesus name, Amen.  

Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.  

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