One Bread, One Body - Reflection for December 10, 2014 YALL COME To whom can you liken Me as an equal? says the Holy One. –Isaiah 40:25 No one equals God in anything. Consider Gods strength; He is unequaled in strength. Almighty God is so strong that He made and sustains the millions of stars which span light-years in space (Is 40:26). Almighty God is willing to share His unlimited strength with us. He gives strength to the fainting; for the weak He makes vigor abound (Is 40:29). When God strengthens old or weak people, they can outrun, outwork, and outlast young folks. Those who let God renew their strength will soar as with eagles wings; they will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint (Is 40:31). It gets better. God will make you so supernaturally strong that you will be able to say with St. Paul: In Him Who is the Source of my strength I have strength for everything (Phil 4:13). Gods love in you will be stronger than death (see Sg 8:6). Death, sickness, pain, and Satan will wear out before you will. You will have the strength to enter into eternal life and rest (see Mt 11:29). To receive this supernatural strength, all people must come to Jesus. All you who are weary and find life burdensome (Mt 11:28), come to Jesus. PRAYER: Father, beginning this Advent may I have Your strength for everything. PROMISE: My yoke is easy and My burden light. –Mt 11:30 PRAISE: For decades, Chris has volunteered at a retreat center by continually mowing grass, landscaping, and tending the grounds. With strong faith, he prays daily in Eucharistic adoration for all those who attend the retreats. | :
