St. Columban
Isaiah 52:7-20 Luke 9:57-62

‘Arise, shine, for your light is come and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. (Isaiah 60:1). The Word of the Most High, father of all born into His most glorious world speaks to every one of Hs beloved sons and daughters.

And one and all are challenged by the Word of light and life and love as they grow and relate to one another and to the Father’s world to be alert and alive to the Word spoken in their heart and mind calling one and all to follow as they are led and guided by Our Holy Spirit. The Son of Man, beloved and loving Son of the Most High, the Father’s Word and Love Incarnate, took on human flesh, suffered, died and in and through His risen life calls the faithful of all times and dispensations to follow in His steps as they are led and guided by Our Holy Spirit and to identify with the Father’s will and loving purpose in the grace and power of My indwelling. The call is individual and direct to each and every one, the message given as each responds in faith and trust and in self-giving. The way is sometimes strewn with pain and sorrow, but be of good courage , for I have overcome the world. (John 16:33) And I have come and continually come that you may have life and have it in all its fulness . (John 10:10)
