Love is the force that changes the world..
B16 having lunch with Rome's poor people..
He is just simply, in the words my daughters would use... "Gorgeous!!!!"
A reflection from me...little old me...mjk...
In a hundred years time you and I will largely be forgotten..
The house we lived in will be torn down and another more modern edifice will replace it..
The Christian work that we did or didn't do will also be gone..
The modern building where we had our Christian gatherings will also be absent.
Why should I care???
I will not be there...
Who cares????
I do! Yes I do!!!
I want to belong to something more permanent than an idea or an interpretation..
I want to belong to something really lasting...
I want to belong to something that does not really depend on my input or lack of it..
I want to belong to a ROCK that will batter down the Gates of Hell.
I want to belong to the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in Heaven.
And so?????
The answer is I do and I have been desperately trying to show you all how simply beautiful and true and awesome and commonsensical it all is..
I am not alone...
Check out the following...
The Saints of OLD going right back to the 1st and 2nd centuries after Jesus' life here on earth.
More modern...
WORD ON FIREE... FATHER ROBERT BARRON...
CS LEWIS...
Peter Kreeft...
John Martignoni..
Noapologies and Friar Joseph..
WHY DO I KEEP BOTHERING YOU???
WHY DO I NOT LET YOU CONTINUE PEACEFULLY IN YOUR BELIEFS???
OK so you want the answer...
Because I want to shake you up out of the little morsel that you have right now and offer you a whole loaf of Heavenly Bread. And more important …. I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am a BEGGAR and I have found the everlasting bread, not just a replica or a man baked loaf that will inevitably go stale and disappear.
I have been eating this bread in one form or another for over 40 years but now I have found in the last 8 years, The Heavenly Permanent variety.. Matthew Ch 16 v 18... I will build my Church...
This is bread baked by Jesus Christ Himself..
It is a 2000 year old loaf and in spite of abuse from within and without, it never goes stale but remains fresh and hot oven baked for eating 24/7...for ever until the end of the age..
A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR..
To investigate this ever fresh bread just go the links on the Internet.
We can now, because of this amazing vehicle of learning, be PHDs on about any subject we want to choose.
No more traipsing off to the Public Library and laboriously ploughing your way through books that might or might not be there.
All the information required is just a finger tip away.
Once again a Happy New Year!!!
Only one real requirement????
You need to be a seeker...a knocker... and an asker...see Matthew Ch 7 v 7.
Never be satisfied with the little you have found... there is so much more for you and for me if we keep an open mind..
I have still a long way to go... I have not yet arrived...I can go so much deeper and deeper and that is in itself so very very exciting.. I am challenged and excited...ARE YOU TOO? Send me an honest answer..
I am waiting...
mjk... Peace!!!
