Matthew 11:5 ~ Good News

 

 

Matthew 11:5

The blind receive their sight 

and the lame walk, 

lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, 

and the dead are raised up, 

and 

the poor have 

Good News preached to them

Matthew 5:3–12

Blessed are 

the poor in spirit: 

for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 

Blessed are they that mourn: 

for they shall be comforted. 

Blessed are the meek: 

for they shall inherit the earth. 

Blessed are they which do hunger 

and thirst after righteousness: 

for they shall be filled.

We live in the Post Pandemic, stressed, strange and, yet, some Good News time.

During the Pandemic, we saw so many pictures of people in sadness in Hospitals, Nursing Homes, walking into the Hospital. Journalists screaming. And then the "Peaceful Protests?"  I knew doctors and nurses who grimly did what they needed to do, with the terror of being told Covid would "never" go away. The determination and completely sad faces.  The people visiting and working in Nursing Homes and Assisted Living.

God Bless Them Forever.

Romans 12:21

Do not be overcome by evil, 

but overcome evil with good.

The Animal Shelters after quarantine lifted.  The people who stayed with the Animal Shelters. The Veterinarians who stayed the course during The Pandemic and after.

God Bless You.

Mark 16:15

He said to them, 

"Go into all the world and preach the gospel 

to all creation."

Then, people who suddenly held 2 jobs for the first time. And the people who post hiring lists, making huge lists.

The people who suddenly picked up pets to help the animals have homes and not be euthanized. Fostering an animal to rehome!

God Bless Them.

Romans 8:28

And we know that in all things 

God works for the good of those who love Him, 

who have been called 

according to His purpose. 

The misunderstandings told about inflation, we see and live, in necessity items cost. Tell the inflation rate to our electric costs, pharmacy costs and grocery costs. The stress from the older population in their medication for items that are $2,700 per month. 

God bless all of us, please.

Matthew 19:17 

And He said to him, 

“Why do you ask me about what is good? 

There is only one who is good. If you would enter life, 

keep the commandments.”

The School Boards, parents and quietly teachers and school nurses, who suddenly became vigilant and determined for Child Safety on So Many Levels. Interest in wholesome education and watching over Children became priority and important, again. Jesus Bless You.

My mother-in-law visited, we went to our local, neighborhood CVS Pharmacy to pick up medications left behind during the visit, and found 2 of her enormously expensive medications were not going to keep costing her $4,000 g per month because instead of 1 set of drops and 1 pill. She could take 2 drops and 4 pills of generic medication, on the shelves for "Years." Honesty in medications. It was over a $3,000 per month savings.

The healthcare workers who put care in a time healthcare isn't mentioned. 

God Bless You.

We would have to realize we are all taking turns experiencing the Post Pandemic. If it wasn't you last year, it could be you this year, as those around you sort out their pressures and sadness. 

Psalm 100:5 

For the Lord is good; 

His steadfast love endures forever, 

and 

His faithfulness 

to all generations.

Christians tend to worry every direction for the goodness of Life - meaningful Life.  And in worrying for and about each other can feel like the poor in spirit or mourn.

Genesis 1:4 

And God saw that the light was good. 

And God separated the light 

from the darkness.

Israel has suffered from a new, bad press for more than 2 decades in the United States.  And suddenly, in the middle of the Pandemic, the White House had Israel and their Neighbors genuinely and with glad and amazed hearts - celebrating and signing a Peace. Suddenly, the world loved Israel and rejoiced in the Peace of Israel.  

We have worried and worried over the open borders and homelessness. Wondered why we suffer an open border. Now, Israel has their border invaded. Our sympathies with Israel for the peaceful families sleeping and killed, kidnapped. The outrage of outrageous words shot back and forth.  

And yet, what we all want is for Israel to have this peace. Wondrous Peace. For all.

Psalm 37:3 

Trust in the Lord, 

and do good

 

dwell in the land 

and befriend faithfulness.

Do your little bit of good where you are

it's those little bits of good

put together

that overwhelm the world

Abba, Father

Help us to be wise,

 we shall shine like the brightness of the sky above; 

and those who turn

and bring many to righteousness, 

like the stars forever and ever.

Abba, Father 

To Him 

Who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His Blood

And made us a kingdom, priests to His God and Father,
to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Behold, He is coming with the clouds, 

and every eye will see Him, 

even those who pierced Him, 

and 

all tribes of the earth will wail on account of Him. 

Even so. Amen.

Revelation 1

Music within our souls praising God

Psalms 19:1 

 For the director of music. A psalm of David. The heavens 

declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

St. Martin's Choir 

directed us to the heavens

declaring the Glory of God

and to the skies

proclaiming

the work of His Hands.

We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers.

 Increase the Love showing the Holy Spirit 

and 

help us with the political upheaval and storms. 

We ask Your mercy on the people You have given us. 

Prayers for the Peace of Israel

and less sensationalism headlining from the news.

A Lasting and Sincere Peace

for the Children of Israel.

Thanksgiving, 

For Your Love and care for the people we love. 

We lift up our concerns to You, knowing Your Love.

Amen in Jesus Christ.
