Acts 21: 7-16 ~ chosen

 

Acts 21: 7-16

I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, 'Saul! Saul! Why do you persecute me?'

8" 'Who are you, Lord?' I asked.

“ 'I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting,' he replied. 9 My companions saw the light, but they did not understand the voice of him who was speaking to me.

10 “'What shall I do, Lord?' I asked.
"'Get up,' the Lord said, 'and go into Damascus. There you will be told all that you have been assigned to do.' 11 My companions led me by the hand into Damascus because the brilliance of the light had blinded me.

12 "A man named Ananias came to see me. He was a devout observer of the law and highly respected by all the Jews living there. 13 He stood beside me and said, 'Brother Saul, receive your sight!' And at that very moment I was able to see him.

14 "Then he said: 

'The God of our fathers has chosen you to know His will and to see the Righteous One and to hear words from His mouth. 15 You will be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard. 16 And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on His name.'

This passage is Living and Active. Not all about Paul. This is the experience we will live as Jesus calls us to His Kingdom. 

My mother is being called to Jesus this week. Nurses and the attending Physician have said. She has grown so old, wheelchair or bedridden. Not speaking. Not knowing. Not remembering. Not recognizing. And refusing food and water.

My mother has been chosen to know His Will. To see the hills and highways of Heaven. To see the Righteous One. To hear Words from His mouth.  We will all witness the Light of mankind, we will see and hear. 

 Jesus will say to my mother, "What are you waiting for? Get up, be filled in the Promises of Heaven in Our Holy Spirit. Wash your sins away. Calling on me, Savior of the world, Jesus Christ."

John 15:11 

These things I have spoken to you, 

that my joy may be in you, 

and that your joy may be full.

 Revelation 21:5

 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: 

old things are passed away; 

behold, all things are become new.

Abba, Father,

Dwell wonderfully in us

and in those we Love.

Increase Heaven on earth.

Strengthen us to be Love and Joy to You.

And we, yes, will seek You first in Jesus

And finish well.

All Glory and Honor to Jesus Christ. 

Blessings on this Nation of Your Mercy

and to the earth You call, “Good.”

Mercy and Blessing upon my mother, Anne.

We were called upon to arrange her Memorial Service today. 

 Now to Jesus, Glory, Who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, 

according to the power at work within us, 

to Him be glory in the church 

and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations,

forever and ever. Amen.
