Week 9 - The Journey Day 1
"He said to them in reply, "You see all these things, do you not? Amen, I say to you, there will not be left here a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down." Matthew 24:2
Jesus just finished denouncing the Pharisees and He being God knows what happens when life is built without God. It is destined for destruction. You see all these things, do you not? We can deny Christ and He clearly tells us what the outcome will be.
In our culture today, do we not see the same thing going on, the effort to remove God. I could mention many different things where God or His teachings are being ignored and we see what is happening to this world view.
"The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone." Psalms 118:22 In our own lives, we have experienced things where God was not a part of it, it did not work. It is in coming to the understanding that with God all things are possible and we need to have Him in His throne room, our hearts. Building the foundation is the most important of any building. Listen to God and build a life upon Him.
What is God saying to me?
Dear Father, I have many imperfections but You overlook all of them and show me Your love. Day after day, we talk together and we listen to each other. In this relationship You are building upon the Cornerstone. You are opening up scripture and sharing of Your self and the life of Jesus. I thank You for all my failures that have helped me find You. I pray that others recognize a life without You leads to destruction. Bless this day Lord, may it be filled with Your presence. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Confessors, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Stepfather of Jesus, Pray for us.

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