3/15/10 c-blog WE ARE EMPOWERED By GOD TO BE PLANTERS OF THE SEEDS IN OUR MIDST, Incarnation(530p) "...kingdom is like the mustard seed..we are like the seed..with potential,,it is something that progresses in the midst..ask selves..how do we imagine...when no more sin, death, pain, suffering..just the fulness..we possess the seeds within us..empowered by God to be planters of the seeds in our midst..so much negative bc people have not submitted to God's plan for them..then daily surrender to the Lord's will..lent reminds us of renewal..seed within us, but to also plant the seeds of redemption in others...evil to good, death to life...be faithful planters.."
Isaiah 65:17-21 "Thus says the LORD: Lo, I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; The things of the past shall not be remembered or come to mind. Instead, there shall always be rejoicing and happiness in what I create For I create Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight; I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in my people. No longer shall the sound of weeping be heard there, or the sound of crying; No longer shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not round out his full lifetime; He dies a mere youth who reaches but a hundred years, and he who fails of a hundred shall be thought accursed. They shall live in the houses they build, and eat the fruit of the vineyards they plant "
"I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me."
John 4.43-54 "At that time Jesus left [Samaria] for Galilee. For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his native place When he came into Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, since they had seen all he had done in Jerusalem at the feast for they themselves had gone to the feast Then he returned to Cana in Galilee where he had made the water wine. Now there was a royal official whose son was ill in Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, who was near death. Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe. The royal official said to him, Sir, come down before my child dies.The man believed what Jesus said to him and left. While the man was on his way back his slaves met him and told him that his boy would live. He asked them when he began to recover. They told him, The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon."
