John 14:21,22 ~ in God

 

John 14:21,22

Whoever does what is true comes to the light, 

so that it may be clearly seen that 

his works 

have been carried out in God. 

 After this 

Jesus and His disciples 

went into the Judean countryside, 

and He remained there with them 

and was baptizing

Jesus was Baptizing? Why? According to Mark's Gospel, the 3rd Chapter, Jesus said for all righteousness. To welcome righteousness. The Gospels are filled with so many miracles. Chapters telling us, "Jesus healed them all."  The whole large crowd would be healed of complex physical ailments. A renewed and healthy life.

Yet not everyone who came into the smaller towns and wilderness was lame, blind, deaf or leprous. Not everyone was poor. The Book of Acts records the people in Herod's own household were coming to know Jesus and His Word. Jesus tells us He was tired of the people who wanted to see the miracles and be fed, but really wanted to only receive and have a full stomach.

Jesus would have wanted all the people, His people, His Beloved to remain whole, seeing, hearing and clean. When Jesus said repent, Baptism is giving a sign for renewal.  Renewed lives. New thoughts. Hope. Faith and Love.

Matthew 3

16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, He went up out of the water. 

At that moment, Heaven was opened, 

and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove 

and alighting on Him. 

17 And a Voice from Heaven said, 

“This is my Son, Whom I Love; 

with Him I am well pleased.”

Abba, Father,

within us in Your Joy and Love.

Be the Light to those I Love.

Help this Joy fill Your Good Creation.

Help us to not grow weary

Renew us

remembering our Living Water 

Streams of

 Jesus Christ, Messiah, Son of the Most High

In Your Mercy

help us to be

Your Joyful Temple.

Help us to Seek You First

and Pray

to You

in Jesus Christ

with all Joy of Your Steadfast

Love.

In The Highest Name of

Jesus Christ

we believe

and 

ask

Please Father,

Your Willing and Immeasurable

Blessings!

Our Father is able to do immeasurably more 

than all we ask or imagine, 

according to His power 

that is at work within us, 

to Him be the glory in the church 

and 

in Christ Jesus 

throughout all generations, 

forever and ever. 

Amen.
