Week 12 - The Journey Day 3



Week 12 - The Journey Day 3 The feast of the Transfiguration.  

"Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward."  ‭‭Mark‬ ‭9:41‬

"I thirst", these are the words that God put in my thoughts, the words that Jesus spoke while on the cross.  "Then the righteous will answer him and say, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?' And the king will say to them in reply, 'Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.'"  ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25:37-40‬

We are the body of Christ, we live in the resurrection, we live with Christ transfigured within us.  When Christ saw another in need He reached out with what ever He had.  So those that are in need of a drink are easy to spot, their spirit says "I thirst", just as Jesus hung on the cross and thirsted for our salvation.  You are His hands, You are His body, You are His voice and You are His feet, He thirsts!

What is God saying to me? "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him." Mark‬ ‭9:7‬b

Dear Father, we live in a thirsty world, looking for their tongue to be quenched, looking for a ray of Hope.  You are the water that we need so we will never thirst again, You are the well spring of life that never runs out.  Father I may not be much but what I am belongs to You.  May this constant drip serve You well, may I see the need and may I respond to Your voice when You cry out.  Thank You Father for another day to go do what You ask of me.  In Jesus name, Amen. 

Mary, Queen of Victory, Pray for us. 

St Joesph, Solace of the Afflicted, Pray for us.
