Wisdom 2:1, 12-22

Verse 12 is a perfect description of the world we live in today.  These prophetic verses written long before You became incarnate point to You my Lord; how is it then that Your people of the Old Covenant did not see then and do not see now the perfect fulfillment of all these prophecies in You?  Truly Lord often it is because we deliberately choose not to see for if we did then we would have to lead transformed lives.  All the world then would have to bow the knee and proclaim You as Lord to the glory of God our Father. 

Psalm 34:17-21, 23

 

23 But the Lord will redeem the life of his servants;

none of those who trust in him will be doomed.

How wonderfully reassuring verse 23 is my beloved Lord.    All who have entrusted their lives to You are redeemed by Your most precious Blood.

John 7:1-2, 10, 25-30

My Love, sometimes we make poor judgements about people because we think we know them.  We do not judge on the basis of truth but form false judgements baded on prejudice jsut as the people of Your day did.  help me Lord not to succumb to this false way of thinking as I am often tempted to do.
