” His son said to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and against you, I no longer deserve to be called your son, but his father ordered his servents, let us celebrate with a feast, because this son of Mine was dead and has come to life again”.
LK: 15;21-22a. 23b-24a
Sinners come home, come home back to where you belong, to be truly at peace, and be at rest within the glory of God, whether you are still here on Earth, or have already reached Heaven. We all at one time or another, have said we couldn’t wait to leave the nest, we couldn’t wait til we get older, and now that we are older, we wish we never said that and want to be young again. Here is the thing that we all over look, we think our parents forced us to go to church every sunday, well there was no force, just you being a rebellion starting to do things that you were told not to do. This is the start of each one of us, walking away from the house of the Lord, and as we never go through those doors, also do we not open the door to asking God for forgivness of our sins, so as we walk away from the church and as we now think that we need not ask for the forgivness of our sins, comes the days of great sorrows, the days that now we become divided from one another, the days that the darkness smothers us within the hands of denial, keeping us from reaching the light of salvation, where we could be within the peace and faith of Jesus Christ, giving us all great hope moving forward.
It’s time we all come back home to the house of the Lord, so we all can be free from our sins, be free from our troubles, so the dark clouds of Satan can be lifted above us, as Jesus forgives us all from our sins, as we find the peace and happiness we have walked long and hard to find. I get the fact that we all can’t wait to be living in our own space, but when that space has us test the waters of temptation, this is where we are now steering in a direction of failure, instead of a direction that brings us closer to the faith in Jesus, to have great hope in the turns on the paths through this journey of life. Sin is what seperates us from God, but sin when we ask for God’s forgivness, can bring us even closer to God, giving us eternal life. When you never come back to the open doors of the house of God, when you never ask for the forgivness of Jesus Christ, this is when you miss out on the big inheritance of, being at peace in Heaven, instead of lying in purgatory and floating aimlessly, with no true direction moving forward.
Sometimes along a journey there are snags that will trip you up, there are events that will steer you in a different direction than you like, sometimes these snags come from your own hands with your actions, and sometimes they come from the hands of another, which now you become stripped from your true feelings and emotions, that puts you in the hands of denial, that will turn youn into someone for who you truly are not. Then as you wander through this journey, instead of walking, you lose faith in yourself, as well as Jesus Christ, which gives you no hope, and has you walk away from the house of the Lord and all the chances of truly asking for the forgivness of all your sins, as now you can’t heal properly, to have the ability to fix yourself moving forward, God will always forgive, no matter how bad the sin, just when we lose the faith, is when we lose touch of the lord, where we will not even attempt to walk through the doors of the house of the God.
When the clouds are at their darkest and smothering us into submission, there is zero light anywhere to be seen, but the light of salvation will always shine through, just that we need to give it a chance, by walking through the doors of the house of the Lord and truly believing in Jesus Christ, so his love will flow through your heart and within your veins, as the warmth will warm your soul, taking away the cold of Satan, so we all can be at peace moving forward. We are now about half way through the 40 day journey of Lent, where even Jesus has pulled away from his father, and thinks that he does not deserve him anymore? But his father does tell him to come to him for forgivness, and all will be good for you moving forward. Even Jesus struggles with the temptation from Satan, as he is tempted into being a King with his own land to control and his own people to work the land, Jesus does not realize that it is all part of his father’s plan, to help him grow stronger and lead properly others onto the path of righteousness. Now even Jesus will show his anger as he walks into what was once a house of his father, and it is full of tax collectors, taking money from the people for their own personal gain, as Jesus kicks over the tables saying this is not the place for this. Jesus struggled just as we struggled, while showing us, that with the faith in yourself and in the Lord God, there is nothing you can not over come, there is nothing that will keep you from walking your path with confidence along this journey of life, you just have to have faith in him, just as he had faith in his father, giving him great hope moving forward.
I would love to go to Jerusalem and walk the path of Jesus one day, just to truly see and feel his presence within, and go walk it as he did, with only the clothes on his back, while having complete faith in his father. We of today get so caught up with all the propaganda, get so caught up into all the ugliness, that we forget to just walk our paths for ourselves with faith. Now I get that some will try to strip us of everything like, our feelings and emotions, being truly of who we are, they will try to take everything from us, as they themselves seek all the power, control and greed of all around them? so if you never walk back into the doors of the house of God, ask for his forgivness, then those that seek everything and those that strip you of everything, will then succeed in what they are trying to do, while you bury yourself deep within, to try to escape all the pain and hurt they bring to you. We of this society will do anything to seek all the power over one another, to the point that we ourselves even stop walking our own paths through this journey of life.
Some will go through stages in their lives that they lose sight of who they truly are, they try to become someone they are not, then force themselves on those around them? it is when you have to force yourself, that now you yourself lose sight of reality, you yourself lose the warmth of the blood of Jesus within your heart, as now you let Satan not just tempt you into a place you do not want, but you let Satan turn your heart into a popcicle, that freezes your whole body, with no feelings or emotions of any kind. True there is still some good out there today, but the majority have let the darkness of Satan, take control of all their true feelings and emotions, just so they think it is the thing to do? I think maybe we all have eaten that forbidden fruit as Eve did? Which has brought us all over to the dark side, away from any kind of light, especially the light of salvation.
All this corruption, the ugliness and the hatred comes directly out of the play book of Satan and we all have bought into that just to try to keep the pain and the hurt from affecting us further? When all we need to do is, not just have faith in ourselves, but have faith in Jesus Christ as well, stop with the all about me attitudes and get back to the true empathy that is within us all, escape out of the hands of denial, so now we can walk our paths freely and away from any control that may steer us in the wrong direction. Now some may make fun that you believe in Jesus Christ, only because they themselves are stuck within the darkness of Satan, so now they try to pull you into the darkness and away from the light of Jesus. It’s a big vicious circle that has been happening, since Eve bit into that forbidden fruit, but if each of us unite together and fix that broken link in the circle, is when we all can get back to the path of righteousness, that will bring us to the light of salvation, with in the peace and love of Jesus Christ, so now we can walk our paths of this journey, as Jesus did when he came here with us all.
” Empathy is a feeling deep within us all, that will have us think of one another instead of just thinking of ourselves, just so we can strike each other down for our own personal gain”
” Jesus also had lost faith in his father thinking he was not worthy of his forgivness? he also was tempted by Satan, but he stayed true to himself and his faith became even stronger”
” The darkness of Satan can seem very dark and unescapable, but with the true faith in yourself and Jesus, the light of salvation will always be right there in front of you”
