Daily Thoughts - Division
""I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing! There is a baptism with which I must be baptized, and how great is my anguish until it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to establish peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division." Luke 12:49-51
Do you feel the anguish of Jesus? What would cause God anguish? There is only one thing that I can see and that is a lost soul following the evil one. The fire that He is talking about,(in my opinion) is the fire within, the one that burns for Him. The division He is talking about is to divide us from our evil ways(sin) and unite us with His love.
I still sin but not to the point that I am unaware and turn my back on God. God is love, always ready to receive us even in our sin. Kneel before the Father, clasp your hands in front of Him and listen to God speak within. See the love He has for you, even in your sin, and be transformed by His love not your pride. "Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you." James 4:10
Dear Father, You give us another beautiful day to go and serve You in a world that does not recognize Your Love. Help us in this day, keep us safe and those that we love, may we share the joy that You give within with those unaware of how good You are. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
Mary, Mother of Love, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Pillar of families, pray for us.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
