Our Lord Jesus Christ the King

"At that time he cured many of their diseases, sufferings, and evil spirits; he also granted sight to many who were blind.  And he said to them in reply,  'Go tell John what you have seen and heard:  the blind regain their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the good news proclaimed to them.' " Luke 7: 21-22  Reminding us of what we can expect from our King... "Christ's reign is a conquest not over political enemies but over the powers of sin and death.  His rule is redemption."  see http://www.magnificat.com/

Jesus, our King, you are the Truth and Healing that we need to go forth filled with the fruits of your Spirit!  That we may minister to the "hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or ill or in prison" those that we find close to us in our own family and beyond!  Jesus, we trust in you!  "Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of the least brothers of mine, you did for me."  May we hear these words, dear loving and forgiving Savior and King.  Amen and Halleluia

Bless-bless, Barb

"For the sake of Christ, such Christians regard such earthy beauty, adornment, glory, honor, and the riches of kings and princes as nothing because they have tasted divine beauty and the life of heavenly immortality has dropped like dew into their souls.  Therefore, they ardently long for that love of the heavenly King and they have him alone before their eyes in every desire.  For this sake they detach themselves from every wordly love and tear loose from every earthly attachment so that they may possess that one desire always in their hearts and never mix anything else with it."
