Daily Thoughts - The Desert
https://youtu.be/9rZ8k9m2hwo
""What man among you having a hundred sheep and losing one of them would not leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the lost one until he finds it? And when he does find it, he sets it on his shoulders with great joy and, upon his arrival home, he calls together his friends and neighbors and says to them, 'Rejoice with me because I have found my lost sheep.'" Luke 15:4-6
I journeyed with Christ this morning, it is always a good journey when we visit together. The desert, we all find our way there if we stay upon the narrow road. Once again this is another test, in my opinion, is it the consolations that I am seeking or is it loving my Father that I desire. When we live in the flesh, we desire to feed the flesh but over time in prayer we are taken into the desert, a dry an arid place.
Jesus will return home to be with the 99 in the desert, there will be rejoicing as there is another to celebrate that has made it into the desert with Him. As we grow closer to God it will seems as though He is far away but in fact He has never left. Have a Blessed day in the desert without the desire of the flesh.
Dear Lord God, once again we are blessed to sit and visit. There is joy with the morning dew that falls upon the grass. It refreshes the souls, gives life to the spirit and prepares one of the hot and arid day. Journey with Him and do not be concerned when He seems far away if you are spending time seeking Him. Amen.
Mary, Mother of the Son of Man, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Most Strong, Pray for us.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
