Words written in red; Words of Jesus
Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesare’a Philip’pi, he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that the Son of man is?" And they said, "Some say John the Baptist, others say Eli’jah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets." He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter replied, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." And Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven and I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."
Matthew 16: 13 – 19
We are at Jesus’ disposal. If he wants you to be sick in bed, if he wants you to proclaim His work in the street, if he wants you to clean the toilets all day, that’s all right, everything is all right. We must say, "I belong to you. You can do whatever you like." And this… is our strength, and this is the joy of the Lord.
— Bl. Mother Teresa of Calcutta
Abba, Father, Lord God, thankful for all the blessings You have bestowed upon me I remain conscious of Your teachings and that I have much work to do and I am aware of the importance to surround myself with that which will remind me of Your presence and help me practice the wisdom of what You through Jesus in the Spirit show and teach me. I pray that You will continue to bless me indeed, enlarge my territory, and that Your hand will be with me to keep me from evil and from causing pain; I also ask in Jesus name that You will strengthen the Spirit within me providing me with the discipline and energy to do what I must do and then be able to one day look back like St. Paul and be able to say, ‘I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.‘ (2 Timothy 4:7) All along never walking to fast that I am not able to stop and retreat to that quick place where it is just be You, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
Audio books I am listening to and other books or readings I am reading:
The Shack Mackenzie Allen Philips’ youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change Mack’s world forever. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant "The Shack" wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You’ll want everyone you know to read this book!
