When the Lord is lifted...
Fifth week in Lent: Tuesday, 24th Mar, 2015
Num 21: 4-9; Jn 8:21-30
They thought they were finishing his story off. Little did they know they were giving rise to an all new history. The Lord was lifted and as he had said, he drew all to himself when he was lifted. Today, as always the blood of some children of the Lord is being spilled for no reason, but it is not a signal to the end of the Reign of the Lord. Let the world beware that the Lord is being lifted up. And when the Lord is lifted up, he will definitely draw people to himself.
All that we need to do is like Jesus himself guarantee that we do not act as we like but according to the will of the One who had called us.As Jesus himself testified it was his doing the will of his Father that gave him the meaning of his life. As the Scripture points through St. Paul it is the obedience to the Father that placed Jesus above every being on earth and gave him the name that is above every name ( Phil 2: 8-11)
