I COME TO YOU

Luke 17:12-13 - "As He was entering a village, ten lepers met Him... 'Jesus, Master!  Have pity on us'".
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We would rather wait for blessings to come our way.  We would just stay within our comfort zone, and just wait for something good to happen.

Is this your attitude?

No wonder you are stuck where you are now.  You just remained contented at what you have.  Yes, there is nothing wrong with that.  Just that, you should stop whining.  You should stop complaining why your life is like that.  You chose the life where you are now, and only you can change that.

Why not start acting the lepers in the Gospel today?

They knew that they are outcast.  They knew that they cannot be in the crowded places, as they risk having people contaminated with their disease.  They knew that they are a hopeless case as leprosy is not curable.

But instead of doing nothing, they are the one who sought Jesus.  They tried to met Him, asking Jesus for mercy.  They asked Jesus to bless them.  They asked Jesus to cure them and become again productive part of society.

And Jesus did not disappoint them.  They were cured of their disease.

So, why not seek Him now.  Meet Him in prayers and stop complaining.  And remain humble to the end.  It is better for you to say nothing and let the world see that Jesus changed your life by the way you live, and not by the things you say.

+ Let us pray:  Lord Jesus, I am unclean as a leper shouting to You for forgiveness.  Allow me to meet You and heal me of my spiritual illnesses.  Thank You for even giving up Your life to ensure ever-lasting comfort, joy and peace with the Father.  I shall always go back to You and give You thanks and praise.  Amen +
