NOT SO FAR AWAY IS=
(The Kingdom of GOD)
Today we read=Luke 11:29-32=WHERE the People=of Jesus’
Time=Ask for a Sign=that HE IS=who he says he is=But Jesus
Tells them=And us today=NO SIGN will be given=”For as Jonah=
Was a SIGN to the Ninevites=so also will the Son of Man be
to
This generation”
Luke 11:29-31
The people of Jesus’ day=were cynical=They had such=LITTLE
FAITH=
But somehow=I cannot help but FEEL=That if Jesus came today=
We would want a sign=WE WOULD WANT PROOF=but Jesus would
Tell us=just like=He told the PEOPLE OF YESTER YEAR=to have
a
Little FAITH=Yet I know=we are NOT SO FAR=from the KINGDOM
of God=
For the Holy Father God=and his Son Jesus=THE GODS OF LOVE=
Live INSIDE=each and everyone of us=”Yours Lord=is the
KINGDOM=
You are exalted=as Head over all”
1 Chronicles 29:11
“In those days=John the Baptist=Came preaching in=the
wilderness
Of Judea=and saying’=’Repent=for the Kingdom of heaven=has
come
Near’”
Matthew 3:1-2
“Jesus said’=’The coming of=the KINGDOM OF GOD=is not
something
That can be observed=Nor will people say=’Here it
is’=or=’There it is’=
Because the KINGDOM OF GOD=is in your midst’” Luke
17:20-21
That is=RIGHT MY FRIENDS=You will NEVER be able to say=There
is=
THE KINGDOM OF GOD=It is NOT=a tangible object=but it LIVES
INSIDE OF YOU=Look for it=IN THE RECESSES=of your own heart=
Don’t let the distractions=and worries=of YOUR DAILY
LIFE=obscure
Your view=You are=NOT SO FAR=from the KINGDOM of God=It
LIVES
Inside of you!
Lent is here=and REMINDS me/US=that the LOVE AND MERCY of
God
Are here=HERE and now=but the TRUE LOVE=of our perfect
God=will
COME back here again=IN a physical sense too IN JESUS=we are
NOT
SO FAR FROM=the KINGDOM OF GOD!=”Jesus said’=’MY KINGDOM=is
Not of this world=If it were my servants=would fight to
prevent=My arrest
By the Jewish leaders=BUT MY KINGDOM=is from another
place’” John 18:36
“Then the end will come=When he hands over=THE KINGDOM=to
God
The Father=After he has destroyed=all dominion-authority-and
power” 1 Corinthians 15:24
In the mean time=MY BROTHERS and SISTERS=have a little
FAITH=We
Don’t need a sign=we are=NOT SO FAR=From the Kingdom of
God=The Holy
Father God and Jesus ACCOMPANY us=in every single moment=of
our life=
Especially our MOST DIFFICULT MOMENTS=We don’t need a
sign=We
Just have to PERSEVERE IN FAITH=in hope=and in GOD’S
LOVE=”And now
These three remain=FAITH=HOPE=and love=But the greatest of
these
IS LOVE”
1 Corinthians 13:13
So HOLD ON=to God and Jesus=just a little tighter=CLING to
the
Holy Father God=Just a little more=have a LITTLE FAITH=for
the
Kingdom of God and Jesus=LIVE INSIDE OF YOU!
In Jesus’ name=and in the NAME of=the Holy Father God=the
GODS
Of perfect love!
