Blessings in Our Midst (12/16)

Gospel: John 5:33-36

You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth. Not that I accept human testimony; but I mention it that you may be saved. John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you chose for a time to enjoy his light.” I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the very work that the Father has given me to finish, and which I am doing, testifies that the Father has sent me. ~ John 5:33-36

All through the course of life, the Lord has paved the way for us to get to know Him and His ways, and for thousand of years we have opted not take heed and continuously ignored His call. God’s love goes undeterred as He send His holy people one after the another to guide us, to lead us, to teach us, so that we may be worthy of a blessed life with Him in His kingdom.

Countless times, human as we are—have chosen to ignore the wisdom of people around us simply because we are too caught up in the grinds of our daily lives. For most, we have managed to reduce the blessing of life to a mere “tick tock” that we ended up valuing the wrong things. But it’s always comforting to know that whatever situation we may be, whether we deserve His love or not, no matter how many times we have refused His guiding hands, the Lord our God will always send people and strangers in our lives to teach us, to guide, to manifest His will in our lives and to lead us back to His welcoming embrace.
