IN THE ORDINARY TOO=Jesus is

 

 

 

 

JESUS IS IN=THE ORDINARY TOO

 

We TEND to think=HOLY things=are holy things=and

ORDINARY THINGS=are just ordinary things=but we

MUST KNOW=that there is often a CONNECTION=Between

The two=JESUS IS IN

 

The ordinary things too=He was AT WEDDINGS=at funerals=

He dined with people=and he even drank wine=”People do NOT

PUT NEW WINE=in old wineskins”                                                                                                   Matthew 9:17

 

Are we ABLE to make this CONNECTION=between the HOLY

And the ORDINARY=Do we KNOW that Jesus is with us in=

ALL things?

 

Holy things like CHURCH SERVICES=communion and prayers=but

Also in the ORDINARY things of life too=Like cooking and eating dinner=

GOING to a wedding or to a funeral=paying bills=Taking CARE of our pets=

And CHILDREN=visiting the sick=all the ORDINARY things of life=

LOOK for the connection

 

“I am the Lord=Your God=consecrate yourselves=and be HOLY=

Because I am HOLY”                                                                                                                               Leviticus 11:44

 

“He provided redemption=for his people=he ordained

His covenant forever=HOLY and awesome=is his name”                                                     Psalm 111:9

 

“But the Lord Almighty will be=exalted by his justice=and

THE HOLY GOD=will be PROVED HOLY=by his righteous acts”                                           Isaiah 5:16

 

But we have to UNDERSTAND=God is in the ORDINARY too=Jesus

Is IN THE ORDINARY ACTS=of this world=you NEVER KNOW=when

The Holy Father God and Jesus=are going to show up=the KEY to

Holiness=is BEING PRESENT=in all moments=the ORDINARY too

In this life

 

The Holy Father God and Jesus are PRESENT=wherever you and I

Are=Jesus is in the community=IN THE ORDINARY=in all people

 

“Blessed are those=who have learned to acclaim you=to walk

In the light=OY YOUR PRESENCE LORD”                                                                                          Psalm 89:15

 

“Where can I go=from your SPIRIT?=where can I flee=

From your PRESENCE?”                                                                                                                       Psalm 139:7

 

“For Christ did not enter=a sanctuary made with human hands=

That was=only a copy=of the true one=He

Entered heaven itself=now to appear for us=IN GOD’S PRESENCE”                                       Hebrews 9:24

 

Dear Lord=we pray=HELP us to understand=that you

ARE in the ORDINARY THINGS of our life=and that you are

With us=wherever we are=wherever we go=IN

 

THE ORDINARY PLACES we go=and in the ORDINARY PEOPLE

That we spend our whole lives with=OUR family and friends

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our ever living=EVER LOVING=Ordinary

But Holy=Father God!
