SOLEMNITY OF CHRIST THE KING
John 18:36a - "My kingdom does not belong to this world..."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is the "King of Diamonds" - our wealth, our richness, the source of our "happiness"
There is the "King of Spades" - our work, our job, the source of our livelihood.
There is the "King of Flowers" - our family, our relationships, the source of our inspiration.
And, there is the "King of Our Hearts". The Lord, our King, our Savior - Jesus Christ. The source of our Life.
The first 3 Kings are important in our life. But be reminded that they are with us, because of the fourth one. And we should use the first 3, not for our own selfish interests, but to serve the fourth One.
And as we celebrate the Solemnity of Christ the King, let us all find solace and experience paradise, the one promised by our Lord. And once we reach that place, may we truly say that "I am now in Paradise, with my Lord and my King".
The One and Only King of Our Hearts...
+Let us pray: Lord Jesus, the Anointed One, our Savior and our King, I choose today to take refuge in You. I choose to fear the Lord and not man, and I choose obedience over willfulness and submission over pride. I am blessed beyond measure already, and I praise and thank You for all You have provided, knowing that we will lack no good thing as we seek You first above all else. To You be all the honor and glory! Amen +
