Words of Jesus

"Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. He who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I myself conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."

Revelation 3:20-22

"And I tell you, Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"

Luke 11:9-13

Always look forward and never look back.

— Bl. Junipero Serra

Abba, Father, Lord God, my heavenly Father I thank You for this moment where I can acknowledge all Your blessings and praise You for the living Words of Jesus that are my source of source each day. For I know that Jesus stood by me and kept knocking until I opened the door, and in and through Him I know I can come to You in His name in the Spirit each day to ask, seek and knock; but in this knowledge is feeling, and I feel like I must keep asking that You use me to help others hear Jesus knocking learn to seek His voice in the living Word as their source of source, and always look to You through Jesus in the Spirit for what to do and say confident that if we will knock You will help us open any door, Such simply words, that come to live when we practice them and only impact others the more we practice. So today as each day I ask Your help in seeking Jesus' presence by walking in the Spirit. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
