Thank you!
The se...Inspiring Meditation Benedict! Thank you!<br /><br />The sentence that got me thinking in this Gospel was when the Scripture said, “He meant to pass by them.”…. speaking of Jesus passing by the disciples.<br /><br />Every word of Scripture is inspired and cannot go to waste. I wonder the meaning of these words. If the Gospel is eternal, these words must mean something to me for today. I too have to pass by my teens or anyone else when they aren’t ready to hear what I have to say. I have to find a way that will awake them to what I have found in Jesus, without words. Jesus Himself has given me this wonderful task!!! The society we live in loves to talk about our opinions. We are not a listening society, in general. Jesus knew that the disciples didn’t get it. But He also knew that they didn’t understand the miracle of the loaves and fish, so maybe…..He was going to walk past them hoping that they might “see and believe”. Instead, when they cried for help, He could not – not help them. Since He is Love, He could not help Himself!! <br /><br />I do wonder what it would be like to be all Love…. <br /><br />"There is no fear in love,<br />but perfect love drives out fear<br />because fear has to do with punishment,<br />and so one who fears is not yet perfect in love."<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
