TWO things=I know about Jesus==is that

He is=always=going to tell us

TO GO LOW=and he is always

GOING to ell us

To take=THE LEAST and last seat

To KEEP all others=above ourselves

 

JESUS can say that=because he did it HIMSELF=

And because he KNOWS that=WHEN

 We do these things sincerely=His FATHER

Is going=to LIFT US UP!=He did it for Jesus

And he will=DO it for us too

LIFTED UP=BY OUR GOD!

To a feast=go and take

THE LOWSEST PLACE…..”                                                                                                         Luke 14:10

 

“……..that at the name=OF JESUS

Every knee=should bow=in heaven

And on earth=and under the earth

 

And every tongue acknowledge=

Jesus Christ is Lord=to the glory

Of God the Father”                                                                                                                      Philippians 2:10-11

 

What BETTER EXAMPLE=of

GOING LOW=can we have=Than Jesus himself

He went low=THE LOWEST

And our God the Father=has EXALTED HIM

As KING=over all the earth

 

GOING LOW=like Jesus=being

LIFTED UP=BY OUR GOD!

The ULTIMATE TEST=in humility

Is being poor=Jesus was from

A POOR working man’s family

 

He died=ON THE CROSS=and

PAID THE PRICE=for us all=but

Our Holy Father God=LIFTED HIM UP

And resurrected him=from the dead=He is

The KING=Of the UNIVERSE TODAY

 

Then we have=Saint Francis of Assisi

Of Calcutta=who SERVED the poor=with her life

But our God=LIFTED them up

A firm place=to stand”                                                                                                          Psalm 40:2

 

“Just as=Moses LIFTED UP

The snake=in the wilderness=so

That everyone who believes=may have

Eternal life=in him”                                                                                                             John 3:14-15

 

THE POOR=welcomes the Lord

With everything they have=just like

THE POOR WIDOW

 

I have BEEN POOR=all my life=due to circumstances

But FAMILY-friends=and the COMMUNITY OF FAITHS

And most of all=THE LORD

Has helped me along=have=LIFTED ME UP!

 

When you at your LOWEST POINT=Our

Holy Father God =and Jesus=lifts us up

LIFTED UP=BY OUR GOD!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our ever loving=EVER HELPING

Holy Father God!
