SIGNS AND PROOF

SIGNS AND PROOF


Years ago the scribes
And pharisees-
REQUESTED a sign
That Jesus is the LIVING GOD-
Made flesh


TODAY-we modern believers-
Want scientific evidence-PROOF-
If you will
That God does indeed exist


“There is something GREATER
Than Solomon here” Matthew 12:42


I think we all
ARE looking for a sign
That God/that Jesus
Does exist in today's world


Jesus-HIMSELF-IS the sign


And we don't have
To look very far
To find him


He is RIGHT THERE-
In front of us


In the poor
In our neighbor
In the WORD OF GOD
In the bible


He is the SUNRISE
He is the sunset
A summer rain storm
A beautiful Autumn day
Even the cold snowy days of winter


He is everywhere
He is IN everything
And EVERYONE including
You and me


“The Lord is in
His holy temple


He observes everyone
On earth
His eyes examine them” Psalm 11:4


“A new command-I give you
LOVE one another'


As I have loved you
So you-MUST love one another
By this-EVERYONE-


Will know-
That you are my disciples-
IF you love one another'” John 17:35-36


So you say:
WHERE is the sign?
Where is the proof?


Jesus is the sign
Jesus is the PROOF
WHERE is your faith?


Jesus told the pharisees
And the scribes about
The sign of Jonah


And 3 days in
The belly of a BIG FISH


As a foreshadowing
To his own days of death
And RESURRECTION


Jesus said,
“A wicked and adulterous generation
Asks for a sign


But NONE will be given
EXCEPT the sign
The prophet Jonah


For as Jonah
Was 3 days and three nights
In the belly of a huge fish


So the Son of MAN
Will be three days and nights
In the heart of the earth” Matthew 12:39-40


Jesus is the sign
Jesus is the PROOF


“SIGN-SIGN-EVERYWHERE A SIGN
….....” (1970 song from the Canadian FIVE MAN ELECTRICAL BAND)


Jesus is the sign-
Jesus is the proof


And Pope Francis once said:
“TRUE WISDOM
Is the GRACE to see everything
Through GOD'S EYES”


I hope and PRAY
That one day-WE ALL MAY BE
So fortunate


JESUS IS THE SIGN
JESUS IS THE PROOF

Amen,
