Today I propose to you life and happiness. DT 11.26
The season of Lent is given to us to rethink about our lives, we go back to God, faced with our truth and make our choice for salvation in Jesus Christ.
That’s how the people of God from the Old Testament, men and women like us in their path of life, were called to ratify their alliance with the Lord.
So it was: “Moses spoke to the people saying: see I propose to you today life and happiness, death and misfortune.
If you obey the commandments of the LORD, your God, which I am giving you today, loving the LORD, your God, and walking in his ways, and keeping his commandments, statutes and ordinances, you will live and grow numerous, and the LORD, your God, will bless you in the land you are entering to possess. (Dt 30:16)
This is a personal decision, but grace is for everyone without exception.
The Lord is with us, with those who wish to resume their journey.
The laws of the Lord are not heavy, and to fulfill them we rely on the power of prayer and the aid of the Holy Spirit. Happy is the one who trusts God!
Lord God, today I choose life; and I know life is Jesus!
I want to find my pleasure in the law of God and meditate on it, day and night, ceaselessly.
Lord, bless me and my brothers and sisters are on pilgrimage as am I on this earth toward Your Easter!
Come, Lord Jesus!
Come Holy Spirit
