JUAN O SAVIN- The Narrow Path - Sheila Holm, Gerry Foley 1 22 2024

We are in the STORM. With this JOURNEY of TRUTH we must consider how we come to the RIGHT PATH. This conversation is long but a great way to understand the spiritual side of the fight. Many are preoccupied with the day to day events. As this is more related to the deeper more scripture based understandings. As Juan tells the story of Peter.. you might find the meaning comes forward at this time.
Psalm 37:28-29 “The Lord loves justice. He will never leave his faithful all alone. They are guarded forever, but the children of the wicked are eliminated. The righteous will possess the land; they will live on it forever.”
We should also be thankful for God’s mercy. The Gospel shows our humble position before God, and how we deserve nothing but condemnation. God’s gift of mercy should be an eternal spring of thankfulness in our heart.
Ephesians 2:4-5 read, “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ by grace you have been saved.” Let it never be said that we have nothing to be thankful for.
Sheilas words are very important as well. Pilgrims Prayer.
Another response to God’s providence is seen in the Pilgrims’ desire to use their bodies reverently. They wanted to honor the Lord with their service in return for his blessings and sustenance. The pilgrims put action to their thankfulness. They desired to please the Lord by tangible offering love to one another and to their neighbors. This is a great lesson to us. We too should live out our thankfulness to God. We should seek to honor him in our words, and deeds, as a response to his daily care for our needs. I Peter 2: 16 says, “Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.”
