A SERVANT OF GOD!

 

A SERVANT OF GOD!

 

Jesus was=A TRUE SERVANT=

Of his Holy Father God=He

FOLLOWED his Father’s wishes

Even to=his LAST dying breath

 

TODAY we begin=

OUR LENTEN JOURNEY

With the Lord=to the cross

And to the ULTIMATE TRIUMPH

In the Resurrection

 

We have to be

SERVANTS OF GOD!=and others too

If we want to follow

The DIVINE EXAMPLE of Jesus

 

“Jesus began to ask them’=

‘WHAT were you

ARGUING about?’=But they remained silent

 

For they had been discussing=among themselves

On the way

WHO WAS THE GREATEST”                                                                                                          Mark 9:33-34

 

What a CONTRAST=in people

Jesus=is literally telling them

Of his IMPENDING DEATH=and the apostles

Are worried about=WHO was the greatest

 

IF we want

To be great=if

We want to be A LEADER=

We truly have to live

With humility=and in HUMILITY

And self-discipline

 

“The Lord came=and stood there

Calling as=at the other times

‘Samuel-Samuel!’

 

Then Samuel said=

‘Speak=FOR YOUR SERVANT

Is listening’”                                                                                                                                       1 Samuel 3:10

 

“NOT so with you=

Instead whoever wants to become

GREAT AMONG YOU

Must be YOUR SERVANT……..”                                                                                                   Matthew 2:26

 

ONE MAN=beside Jesus

Who truly was

A SERVANT OF GOD

Was our Saint today=Saint Peter Damian

 

This man was KNOWN

For his HUMILITY

And his self-discipline

 

So let us become

Like a SAINT=Like this Saint today

Saint Peter Damian

And be humble=and A SERVANT OF GOD!

 

The words=I long to hear

AFTER my life is over are=

“WELL DONE=

GOOD AND FAITFUL SERVANT!”                                                                                                  Matthew 25:21

 

So THIS LENT=join me

In DEDICATING your life

To God=and trying to be

A SERVANT OF GOD!

 

Just like Jesus and our Saint Today

Saint Peter Damian

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=Of our FOREVER LIVING-LOVING Holy Father God!
