Week 41 - The Journey
"Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is begotten by God, and everyone who loves the father loves [also] the one begotten by him. In this way we know that we love the children of God when we love God and obey his commandments." 1 John 5:1-2
Begotten. Do you consider yourself begotten? If you believe Jesus is the Christ then you are begotten by the Father. What does begotten mean? To bring about, brought forth. You have come to understand that Jesus is the Christ, not made or created but brought forth by God for the salvation of mankind.
Whoever loves the Father loves the one begotten by Him. Belief and love cross paths and we must reconcile ourselves. In a sense, I am being pruned for the knowledge I have was brought about by God, I am a willing participant but it is by the hands of God.
It is a journey and the destination isn't grasped at until eternity is achieved. That is my hope for within there is more to be done. Everyone is on their own path. There is a peace in knowing that God is with us til the end, it is not by my own accord but by the power of God. I will continue to listen and trust.
What is God saying to me? Trust, Jesus trusted along the path for He knew Me and you totally. Trust
Dear Father God, you see the day that lies ahead, in our journey together give me the wisdom and understanding to navigate it as your begotten son. Prayers for a world that fails to listen to the beauty of life including me. Thank You for this coming weekend as You and Mother Mary prepare the faithful. Those that have yet to make a decision bring them forth into Your world. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Confessors, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Terror of Demons, Pray for us.

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