Week 25 - The Journey begins Day 2



Week 25 - The Journey begins Day 2

"Jesus answered and said to him, "Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.""  ‭‭John‬ ‭3:3‬

The conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus is an interesting one and one that plays out over time with dramatic outcomes.  Have you ever considered your own spiritual blindness, you don't know you don't know.  This is where Nicodemus found himself, he was a teacher of the law and must of followed it to the letter.  Yet he witnessed the signs of God through Jesus. he knew Jesus was different.  "He came to Jesus at night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God, for no one can do these signs that you are doing unless God is with him."" ‭‭John‬ ‭3:2‬

Jesus had Nicodemus's attention, for God was with Him and there was something about Jesus that made Him stand out.  Nicodemus had to find out what Jesus knew that he didn't.  There is no better place to be than in the presence of Jesus(God) getting spiritual direction.  He speaks truth to us and allows us to ponder what is being said.  Jesus will remove the spiritual blindness that is within us and we will see the kingdom of God.  This desire to know what you don't know is from above, it is the calling of the heart to know God deeper and it yearns to be filled.  

Nicodemus would not be satisfied until he had learned what Jesus had.  Nicodemus was being called and he was answering the call.  His spiritual blindness was being removed.  

What is God saying to me?  This desire that is within you will be satisfied for I can not be denied once we have begun the journey.  I am the Giver of finest wheat.  

Dear Father, I sit in the darkness and witness the conversation, I see the inner thinking of both Nicodemus and Jesus.  Jesus doing Your will and responding to those that are seeking You out.  His day is filled with happen chance events yet as Son of Man, He knows it is from You.  Watch over us this day Father, remove the spiritual blindness that exists within us and continue to give us spiritual direction that leads to Your Kingdom in Heaven.  Prayers of thanksgiving for healing Lord, You are the Gift of Finest Wheat, our souls are at rest when they rest with Thee.  To God be the glory, Amen.  

Mary, Mother of Love, Pray for us. 

St Joesph, Protector of the Holy Family, Pray for us.
