Third Sunday of Advent
Luke 10:16
John answered
them all, “I am baptizing you with water, but one mightier than I is coming… He
will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
The Lord has come and
He is knocking. Let us welcome Him in
our hearts. Let our ears be opened so
that the full meaning of what he did and said becomes evident to us, and we
personally see that it involves us.
He gave us a new life, by sacrificing His
life on the cross. May we think about
the greatness, the glory, and the wonder of God.
When we come and believe in Him, and keep
coming and keep believing in Him, we grow into an intimate relationship with
God. And when that happens, we would
never let go, for withdrawing away from Him would be unthinkable.
Learn how to share your work, your family life, your personal life with
Jesus, to operate in dependence upon his wisdom, grace and forgiveness.
Learn to bring all of your life constantly back into connection with Him.
Learn His Words, read the Bible.
Pray constantly and without ceasing.
Let Him know what you heart desires and He will give it to you.
Learn to be with Him, always.
Totally surrendering your life to Him, for He alone is the Lord, and He
alone can give us totally rest and joy.
Let us pray +
Almighty
Father, You give us all the
gift of faith. You give us all the gift
of life. Enable and empower us to see
you in all we touch, hear, say, and do. May
we not take the obvious for granted but, through you, see all of our lives as
sacred and a gift from you. Through our
Savior, in the Holy Spirit, we pray, one God, forever and ever. Amen +
Cry out with joy and gladness:
for among you is the great and Holy One of
Israel.
