St. James, Apostle
2 Corinthians 4:7-15. Matthew 20:20-28

You are given life by Him who loved you into being, the Lord your God and father of all born into His world. And you are offered life eternal as you die to self and seek the Father’s will for you, in the fellowship of being with all in His Kingdom of Eternal Life and Light and Love. The love of Father, Son and Holy Spirit redeems and saves, enables, fortifies and empowers. As the Son of Man sought the Father’s will in all things so are you called to follow, through Love’s indwelling and the light and leading of Our Holy Spirit.

Drink from the cup the Father offers you in faith and trust and in absolute self-giving, for ‘whoever wants to be first must be the willing slave of all, just as the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give up His life as a ransom for many’. Luke 22:42 (Matt. 20:28 (NEB), .2 Corinthians 5:14-17(NEB).
