Sunday, May 10th
Jesus said,
"I am the Resurrection and the
Life. If a man has faith I Me even
though he die, he shall come alive
and no one who is alive and has faith
shall ever die."
John
11:26
Let all believing this commit
their total selfhood to the truth
and power of it: let nothing stay
outside commitment to it. Those
dimly understanding should patiently
pursue the meaning and significance
of this tremendous fact of time
and of eternity. As the understanding
grows Our Holy Spirit illumines,
and He guides into the way the Father
wills and purposes, as they continue
faithful.
And I become their life, their
power of love, their progress and
perfection in time and through eternity.
For this I lived and died and rose
again. And I seek to share the pattern
of My Incarnate Life with all the
Father's children. And as the Father's
children are My brothers and My
sisters I invite them to share My
suffering in the world I came to
redeem and save, and to identify
with My eternal sacrifice as they
encounter pain and loss and sadness.
So will they know the joy of My
eternal victory: for I am the Resurrection
and the Life.
