Today's Early Church Wisdom
“None of us offers resistance when he is seized, or avenges himself for your unjust violence, although our people are numerous and plentiful…it is not lawful for us to hate, and so we please God more when we render no requital for injury…we repay your hatred with kindness.”
~ St. Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage (died 258AD)
This week's Psalm is Psalm 30 'Joy Comes With The Morning'

Touching The Heart

Jesus will change your life

We read in John 1:38 that Jesus asked a couple of John’s disciples, “What do you seek?” Whenever we ask the question, “What does my heart seek?” it touches something deep within us. It evokes a sense of the deep hunger and thirst that lies at the heart of every human soul. It would have stirred the hearts of both men, and their response is to ask Jesus where He is staying. Jesus instantly gives them an invitation: “Come and you will see” (Gk: “Ἔρχεσθε καὶ ὄψεσθε”). It’s simple, it’s personal, and it’s powerful: “Come and see for yourself.” This is the message of the Gospel. Not a call to religion, but a call to relationship. Jesus invites us to come, to walk with Him, to abide with Him, to see the truth of who He is. Anyone who has a real encounter with Jesus will never be the same again. Have you seen how people change when they become friends with Jesus? No other experience is as transformational as this. Jesus will change your life, not just for the better, but for the best
