Words about Jesus
To you therefore who believe, he is precious, but for those who do not believe, "The very stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner," and "A stone that will make men stumble, a rock that will make them fall"; for they stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people, that you may declare the wonderful deeds of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
1 Peter 2:7-9
Words of Jesus
Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?" Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.
"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father.”
John 14:5-6, 12
Whatever, wherever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him. He does nothing in vain. He may prolong my life, He may shorten it, He knows what He is about. He may make my spirits sink, hide the future from me, still He knows what He is about.
— John Henry Cardinal Newman
Abba, Father, Lord God, thank You for this day and these Words of enlightenment. For I have know the power that is in His name Jesus Christ; the name that when spoken convicts. And as Peter writes today, He has become the head corner stone that will make us stumble and fall because of our nature; but He is the one in whose name we can come to You in and with to ask and pray through the Spirit for the courage to speak it openly and the heart to do the works that He did. Give me courage Lord God, liken my heart to that of Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
