What If …

 What If …

What would have happened if Noah said, ‘Don’t worry, it’s just a passing shower’?  (Gen 6:17)

Or if Joshua didn’t believe God and said to the people of Israel, ‘Let’s go - we all know you can’t knock a wall down by shouting’? (Jos 6:1-5)

When Jesus asked his Apostles “Are you going to leave me too?”; what would have happened if Peter said ‘Yes, I’m leaving I’d rather be fishing’ (Jn 6:66-71)

We all know what happened in those stories, and we all know in each one God’s Word wasn’t only listened to, but believed.  So now I ask; Why are there so many of us who simply don’t believe Jesus when he says “This is my body”, “This is my blood” (Mark 14:22-23) and “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood you do not have life within you.  Whoever feeds upon my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day?” (John 6:53-54)

Do we not believe him when he references “eternal life”?  Do we not know that God cannot make a false statement?

We are all somewhere on our spiritual journey; some of us may be just beginning, others may be getting towards the end.  Regardless, NOW is the time to do something to improve your relationship with Jesus so that when you meet him face-to-face he will want to present you to the Father as his beloved and as an adopted son/daughter of God claiming their inheritance.

I hope you realize when you receive the Eucharist in Communion, you are closer to Jesus than you would have been sitting at the table during the last supper?

That same Jesus is waiting for you at this very moment in the Adoration Chapel.  Go to him; sit quietly in his presence and experience the change in your heart.

 The Kingdom of God Is …

“God loves us as His children and His heirs.  His legacy to us is meant to be experienced and lived in the here and now, not just in eternity.  Our inheritance is more than eternal life.  It is eternal life in our temporal lives.  It is the eternal kingdom of the Father in the here and now.  God promises this to us.  And His promise, when He gives it, is not a human promise.  It is a fact.  You can take it to your heart, to your mind, to your soul, with serene certainty.  We can know that because He loves us perfectly and completely”.

 (The World According To God - F. X. Cronin)

God in His Real Presence has said He has more ‘grace’ in His hands than He can shower on us at any one time.  Why not ask Him for an extra measure?  

Take Advantage While You Can

“Look and see …”

When you look upon the Sacred Host, YOU LOOK UPON JESUS, the Son of God.  “Indeed, this is the will of My Father, that everyone who looks upon the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life.  Him I will raise up on the last day.”  (Jn 6:40)

Imagine how the souls in purgatory envy us the ability to sit in the presence of the True God.  Don’t waste an opportunity to spend time in this special way in His presence.  There are only so many opportunities afforded to each of us.  Join the ever growing number of parishioners who are praying regularly in the chapel.

Current Adoration Needs:

Open Hour:  Monday 4-5pm / Tuesday 8-9am

Partner Needed:  Thursday 12-1pm / Thursday 2-3pm / Friday 3-4pm

** May 31 - Memorial Day Holiday - Chapel will be closed - resume Tue June 01 at 6AM **

Adoration softens the Human Condition and helps us grow spiritually.

As you spend more time in Adoration God begins to communicate with you on a more profound level than that of the five senses.  God’s word moves from you ‘head’ to your ‘heart’.
