Week 14 - The Journey Day 7
"It is the spirit that gives life, while the flesh is of no avail. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life." John 6:63
The person of the Holy Spirit, those Jesus is speaking with are lost to the fact that Jesus is God, God the Holy Spirit is within, God is. They see with the flesh and do not seem to overcome this hurdle, the miracle God has just done isn't even in their thoughts. The Eucharistic miracle is missed because they do not see God.
I related to them this morning as I sit with God and we visit. The things of this world can consume us and if we are not careful we miss the miracles that God presents to us. The time in silence, in just being in His presence is a miracle, do we take the time to quiet the mind and bring His miracle of life to Him. "It is written in the prophets:
'They shall all be taught by God.'
Everyone who listens to my Father and learns from him comes to me." John 6:45
Do not be like those Jesus is speaking with, over whelmed by the world, their own way of thinking that You do not see God in your midst.
What is God saying to me? I have given you bread from Heaven, with all sweetness.
Dear Lord God, it is good we are here, You see within and if we are listening, You penetrate the heart. I thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit, I thank You for bringing me out of the norm to have a conversation. Bless this day Father, help me not miss the miracles that You place in front of me. I trust in Your divine wisdom. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Our Lady of Victory, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Hope of the Sick, Pray for us.

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