Jesus Rejoiced and Gave Thanks
/
The snow is disruptive but stunning. Pure. The adults are burdened. Stuck in ditches. Dealing with power outages. Shoveling. But... the children seem to have new life breathed into them. It is beautiful.
In the Gospel today...
JESUS REJOICES.
And He gives thanks.
I’m working today to allow His Word to penetrate all anxiety and sorrow that has settled on me this week. All the heaviness and adult cares.
Come, Lord Jesus! Transform me in Truth. Help me be your little one. ❤️
Luke 10:21-24
“In that same hour HE REJOICED in the Holy Spirit and said, “I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will...
All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”
Then turning to the disciples he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see what you see! For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.”
