Mother’s Day Blessings!
There is a New World that we live in that is different from the world we see. This is Heaven on Earth and those who belong to this world live in Jesus!
As we come to the end of Eastertide (next Sunday is Pentecost Sunday which ends the season) we are reminded that we are different than the rest of the world even though we must function in it. We have been consecrated by the Resurrected Lord Jesus and we are to live this consecration. We read in St. John’s Gospel,
“They are not of the world, even as, I am not of it. Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is the truth. As You sent Me into the world, I have sent them into the world” John 17:16-18
Jesus has brought us together to be with Him now and always. The people we interact with must see that we are different. And that the life we live is attractive and inviting. The best way to bring people to the Jesus’ Kingdom is to live as citizens of that Kingdom!
And may we never forget that the majority of people who live in the Jesus’ Kingdom were born and raised in it. We ask blessings on all of the mothers of our lives, both living and deceased!
Happy and blessed Mother’s Day!
