RIPPLE EFFECTS=FROM THE LORD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RIPPLE EFFECTS=FROM THE LORD

( BECAUSE our Lord WORKS=for us=WITH OUR FAITH)

 

ARE you a Woman or=Man of FAITH?=Do you try and SPREAD the WORD OF GOD?=

If you do=I have some GOOD NEWS for you=for you and YOUR GOOD WORDS=Your

Good works=They do NOT=stop with you!=There is a RIPPLE EFFECT=Because of

YOUR FAITH=That the Lord and THE FATHER GOD=Use to spread=HIS LOVE and=

WORDS AROUND=”……..What God has PREPARED=for those who LOVE HIM=This God=

Has REVEALED  to us=Through the SPIRIT”                                                                             1 Corinthians 2:9-10

 

Do you know=WHAT A RIPPLE EFFECT is?=It is=When you THROW A STONE=Into a lake=

Or a river=THE RIPPLE flows outward=FARTHER than we=COULD ever throw the

STONE itself=That is what HAPPENS=When you SPREAD GOD’S LOVE=God’s WORDS and

Works too=Ripple EFFECTS from the Lord=Because of YOUR FAITH=OUR FAITH!

“But the Word of God=Continued TO SPREAD and flourish”                                            Acts  12:24

“In this way=The WORD of the Lord=SPREAD WIDELY=and grew in power”                Acts 19:20

“We sent Timothy=Who is our BROTHER=and co-worker  in God’s service=IN SPREADING

The gospel of Christ=To strengthen and encourage You=In your faith=So that no one=would

Be unsettled=By these trials”                                                                                           1 Thessalonians 3:2-3

 

JUST IMAGINE=that the Word of God=You send out=and SPREAD about=from your

Lips=Works like that stone=and its RIPPLE EFFECT=Jesus=and HIS FATHER=can take their

WORDS =that you use IN FAITH=and spread it the SAME WAY=It can NOT ONLY touch

Your corner of the world=But it can EFFECT THE WHOLE WORLD=Because of

THE RIPPLE EFFECT of your FAITH in the LORD=For we are  21st century Christian Apostles=

And Catholic apostles=of the LORD JESUS Christ=and His Father=It happens=Whether

You see it happening or not!=Because  of The Ripple Effect=Of the HOLY SPIRIT of

Our God

 

Dear Lord=WE PRAY=Get us out of the way=For the GOSPEL of our Lord SPREADS=The words

OF GOD=are WONDERS and  miracles!=”Listen to this Job=Stop and consider God’s

WONDERS”                                                                                                                                               Job 37:14

“Show me=THE WONDERS of your great love=You who save by your right hand=Those who

Take refuge in you=From their foes’                                                                                         Psalm 17:7

“I WILL SHOW WONDERS=In the heavens above=and signs on the earth below=Blood

And fire=and billows of smoke”                                                                                                       Acts 2:19

WHEN we Pray to the Lord=He INSTILLS the Spirit of God=IN US==and he GUIDES and

Directs us=In which way to go=He lays WISDOM and the Spirit of God on us=Through our

FAITH=and the LORD GOD OF LOVE and=HIS FATHER=Instill the RIPPLE EFFECT=In

Our words and actions

 

And so MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS=EVEN IF=You are NOT seeing any results=from

Your WORDS AND WORKS=The Word of God=is still PROGRESSING=We must have the

FAITH the Good Lord and his Father gave us=For he is PRODUCING A RIPPLE EFFECT=Not

Only in our corner of the globe=BUT IN THE WORLD

 

“Consequently=You are no longer=Foreigners and strangers=But FELLOW CITIZENS with=

God’s people=and also members of his household=Built on the foundation=Of the apostles=

And the prophets=With Christ Jesus himself=as the chief CORNERSTONE”            Ephesians  2:19-20

THE SPIRIT=of the Holy Father of God and Jesus the Lord   PRODUCES a RIPPLE EFFECT!=

Count on it!=IN JESUS’ NAME

FROM THE INSIDE OUT

 

 

 

 

 

 

FROM THE INSIDE OUT=

(Not from the  Outside in)

 

You and I=We FOCUS=On our bodies=We focus ON=What we put INSIDE of them=

We want to eat right=To lose weight=To IMPROVE our medical conditions=To plain

JUST LOOK GOOD=But God=Our LORD=tells us what is MORE IMPORTANT=and it is=

WHAT comes out of us=”But what COMES OUT of the man-That is what  DEFILES THEM=

Jesus went on=’What COMES OUT  of a person=is what DEFILES THEM=For it is from

WITHIN=Out of a person’s heart=That evil thoughts come=--------Sexual immorality=

Theft=murder=adultery=greed=malice=deceit=Lewdness=envy=slander=Arrogance=

And folly=ALL these evils=COME FROM INSIDE=and defile a person’”                              Mark 7:20-23

NOT from the outside=in=But it is=FROM THE INSIDE OUT=that we should focus!

 

But we FOCUS=On other things=Maybe abstaining from alcohol=Or a limited amount

Of calories=Fats=Carbohydrates=etc…=But what about  this=What about our THOUGHTS=

What about God=What about love=and KINDNESS=and forgiveness=ALL the things we=REALLY

Need=Come from the INSIDE=Out=These things make the world=A BETTER PLACE=DON’T get me

Wrong=To be physically HEALTHY=is really important=It is a GREAT BLESSING=But to be

Spiritually healthy=FROM THE INSIDE OUT=Is really what counts

 

“Who may ascend=The mountain of the LORD?=Who may stand in his holy place?=The one

Who has CLEAN HANDS=and a PURE HEART=Who does not trust=In an idol=Or swear by a

False god”                                                                                                                                                     Psalm 24:3-4

“Who can say=”I have kept MY HEART PURE=I am CLEAN and without sin?’”              Proverbs 20:9

“Depart-depart=Go out from there!=Touch no unclean thing!=Come out from it and BE PURE=

You who carry the articles=Of the Lord’s house”                                                                     Isiah 52:11

 

Let us face it=It takes a LOT=of self-control=a lot of self-monitoring=and much much

SELF RESTRAINT=To stay away from=ALL of the evils=Jesus speaks about=In today’s gospel=

EVERYONE has had some evil thoughts=From time to time=THOUGHTS of greed=malice=

Deceit=arrogance=or laziness=But we MUST SUBVERT these thoughts=We must=CONCENTRATE

On=the GOOD THOUGHTS OF GOD=Thoughts of Love=Thoughts of forgiveness=and thoughts

OF KINDNESS=Focus on THOUGHTS OF LOVE and the Holy Father God and JESUS=LIVE FROM

THE INSIDE OUT!=Be pure=Be CLEAN OF HEART!

 

“BLESSED are the PURE IN HEART=For they will see GOD”                                                 Matthew 5:8

“Do not be hasty=In the laying on of hands=and do not share=In the sins of others=

KEEP YOURSELF PURE!”                                                                                                                     1 Timothy 5:22

“All who have this HOPE in him=PURIFY THEMSELVES=Just as he IS PURE”             1 John 3:3

My DEAR SISTERS AND BROTHERS=Lent is LESS than=a week  away=KEEP the focus

ON your interior THOUGHTS=Let us FOCUS ON=Living from the INSIDE OUT=as Jesus

Himself did=NOT ON from the outside in=”CREATE in me=A PURE HEART=O God=and

Renew a steadfast spirit within me”                                                                                                      Psalm 51:10

 

Dear Lord this LENT=we ask for you to HELP US=LIVE from the INSIDE OUT=and SUBVERT

Our evil thoughts and tendencies=and FOCUS only on things LIKE LOVE=Like kindness=and

Like forgiveness=IF we do this LORD=We will have a GREAT LENT=and be MOVING EVER CLOSER

To you

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=Of our ever LIVING=Ever loving=EVER PURE=Holy Father God!

THEY HAD=and WE HAVE EACH OTHER

 









THEY HAD=AND=

WE HAVE EACH OTHER


The sequence of the events=

For the apostles=

MUST have been mind-boggling


The crucifixion=death and

RESURRECTION of Jesus=must have

Beyond imagination-

For Mary Magdalene-

And the other apostles


THEN he walked the mountains-

The terrain and the hills with them

For 40 days


What I FIND HEARTENING

Is that-

THEY HAD EACH OTHER


TOGETHER=in the upper room

-As we have each other=

OUR family and our friends


In the hallways and rooms

Of our lives


“Then they RETURNED

To Jerusalem


From the mount

Called Olivet.........


When they

Entered the city

THEY went to the UPPER ROOM

Where they were staying

…......


ALL these devoted themselves

With one accord

To PRAYER.........”                                                                                               Acts 12:14


THEY HAD=and=

WE HAVE EACH OTHER


TOGETHER=unified and LOVING=

Having each other

IS what makes life work

In this world


“How GOOD and pleasant

It is


When God's people

LIVE TOGETHER in unity”                                                                             Psalm 133:1


“I-in them-

And you in me-


So that they may be

BROUGHT to complete unity


THEN the world know

That you sent me

And have loved them


EVEN as you have loved me”                                                                                John 17:23


“.........UNTIL we all

Reach UNITY in the faith

And in the knowledge

Of the SON OF GOD


And become mature

ATTAINING to the whole measure

Of the FULLNESS of Christ”                                                                                  Ephesians 4:13


To be TOGETHER=ALL OF US=

Under the LOVE of God=

And ONE FAITH


They had each other=

WE have EACH OTHER TOO


They were=the apostles were

PRAYING together=

In the vast unknown

Of their lives

After Jesus died


WE have each other

As we MOVE FORWARD

With out lives


The vast UNKNOWN

Of our lives


The apostles were

SHOCKED some 2000 years ago

As they went through

The UNKNOWN


We-ALL-go through

Major transitions and reversals

In out lives


WHEN we go though transitions

LORD=Help us=to know=

You are always with us

In our INNER ROOM


“BUT when you PRAY

Go into your room


CLOSE the door

And pray to your Father

Who is unseen


Then your Father

Who SEES what is done

In SECRET-will reward you”                                                                                 Matthew 6:6


Dear Lord=THEY HAD EACH OTHER=

And you=all those years ago


As we do today=


WE HAVE EACH OTHER=

And YOU


In Jesus' name

A VALENTINES POEM TO GOD

 

 

 

 

 

 

A VALENTINE’S DAY POEM TO GOD

 

 

 

 

 

A day of love

Between you

And your significant other

Or perhaps

Maybe the love

Of just a friend

For a friend

 

But what about

The love

God gave to you

The love

The love God gives to you/us/me

Every day

 

He loves you very much

He went

To the cross for you

 

He loves you

With an unconditional love

He loves you so much

That there is nothing

You can ever do

To separate

God’s love from you

 

So Lord

We say thank you

We say thank you

For loving us

With this great great love

 

We say thank you

For accepting us the way that we are

And though we can never love you

In the way

And with the same love

That you love us

 

We just want to say

Happy Valentine’s Day!!

 

And

That we will keep making the effort

To always

Keep on loving you
