The Way to Overcome

 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? —1 John 5:5 Scripture reading: 1 John 5  The greatest weakness in the world is unbelief. The greatest power is the faith that works by love. Love, mercy, and grace are bound eternally to faith.

Rational

Stay away from anger and revenge. Keep envy far from you, for it only leads you into lies. Psalm 37:8 Passion Boy does this speak to me. He was at meltdown point. The talking was not enough it was only getting worse. All balance and lucidity flushed away; he yelled like a toddler,  screaming out loud. But it is to no avail. It only last for seconds. Obscenities,  fears, overreaction all burst forth with no logical reason. It is no fun when your brain becomes unbalanced or over loaded. We misplace our sensibilities,  and rational thinking goes out the window. This is where God has given us the Holy Spirit to be with us, and to aid us in self-control and patience. Amen

Receptive

“If you tenderly care for this little childx on my behalf, you are tenderly caring for me. And if you care for me, you are honoring my Father who sent me. The one who is least important in your eyes is actually the most important one of all.”  Luke 9:48 Passion Jesus was open to meeting with anyone. The poor, the oppressed,  the broken and turned away. But especially He was receptive to children. God restores, those who are responsive to His openness receive everything He promises.  When we realize our true place before a righteous and holy God, there is a longing to receive mercy and forgiveness. Only then can He become the high priestly sacrifice that we all need. Amen

His desire is that our hearts be closely familiar with His. His specialty is ultimate intimacy, He so loves us and knows our very beings. Amen
