Hello Thursday Beloved Ones!
This season takes my mind back to that hill every single year. I picture looking out across the dry land and seeing Jerusalem’s city temples in the distance. Mourners and haters about, in the near crowd. Weeping intruded upon by jeers of victors.
The twelve saw Jesus thru different eyes -different experiences than anyone else. Over and over and over they saw withered people explode into full bloom right before their eyes.
Do you believe DearOne? Lives changed.
Jesus, in a pure, dejected, human moment asked them,
‘“You don’t want to go away too, do you? ” John 6:67
And, Peter, of all the disciples, (I just love him-I think because I can relate to him the most!), stepped up from the silence of the group, in his convicted whisper:
“You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and know that You are the Holy One of God! ” (John 6:68, 69 HCSB)
Read those words with your own conviction Sweetheart, over and over, read them.
We believe.
We know.
We know.
Live right there.
