SHOWING GOD'S LOVE TO THE PEOPLE
https://www.archidiocesisgranada.es
Kind regards friends and brothers, today I bring a few words of reflection for all of us and I want to start with a slightly strange question, and it is the following:
Have you ever seen Jesus of Nazareth, looked into his eyes and been with him? It really is a somewhat strange question and maybe you are thinking right now, well but how could I have seen him or been with him, if he is in heaven sitting at the right hand of the Father.
This is something impossible, you will say. but let's reflect a little on the words spoken by our Lord Jesus Christ in Matthew 25; 34-40 then the king will say to those on his right: come blessed by my father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you since the foundation of the world. because I was hungry and you gave me food; I was thirsty and you gave me drink; I was a stranger and you took me in; I was naked and you covered me; sick and you visited me; in prison and you came to me. When we saw you hungry, and we sustained you, or thirsty and we gave you a stranger to drink, and we picked you up, or naked and covered you? or when we saw you sick, or in jail, and we came to you? and answering the King will tell them.
Truly I tell you that as soon as you did it to one of these my smallest brothers Years, you did it to me, this gives us to understand that in each of these situations described above, there is our Lord Jesus present according to his own words, because you did it to some of these my smallest brothers, you did it to me.
This makes it a totally literal fact; we must reflect on this every time that in our daily living or walking someone with a real need of any kind appears to us and act in their favor according to the fact that by serving the needy whom the Lord himself calls his youngest brother, we are serving Him directly.
And it is there that we certainly look into the eyes of Jesus, we are next to him and we can say without a doubt or adverse opinions, today I was in front of Jesus, today I gave him a bread to Jesus, today I gave a piece of clothing to Jesus so it is used, today I collaborated with the medicine that Jesus needed, because he covered a naked, I gave bread to a hungry man I bought medicine for the sick person who had no way to do it , etc,
This is according to the epistle of Santiago, the true religion or the true faith deposited in the God of love, this is the true Gospel that guarantees us the promise that it says; Come blessed of my father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world, may this reflection be a great blessing for your life
MATTHEW 25: 34-40
34 Then the King will say to those on his right: Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in; 36 I was naked, and you covered me; sick, and you visited me; in jail, and you came to me. 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger, and pick you up, or naked, and cover you? 39 Or when did we see you sick, or in prison, and we came to you? 40 And the King answering, he will say to them: Truly I say to you that as soon as you did it to one of these my least brothers, you did it to me.
This is nice
And heart touching
