Amen to the Lord

Jesus said, "Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing.” He told us and showed onto us the loving power of The Lord and his presence in the world; also during his homily, a priest once mentioned about using the bible passages in our lives.

In this January 24th Sunday Gospel, as well as many readings and other gospels, Jesus has taught us many things and performed marvelous miracles. In Luke it states "He unrolled the scroll and found the passage where it was written:

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,

because he has anointed me

to bring glad tidings to the poor.

He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives

and recovery of sight to the blind,

to let the oppressed go free,

and to proclaim a year acceptable to the Lord."

Jesus has shown us the way to righteousness as well as having brought to us the good news. The gospel tells me the Lord is here, and it is good to thank to him for what we have. In addition, the words of Jesus may be used in helping us through life, when there is a tough time in our lives, he has the answer.

In summary, Jesus is our savior. He has done so much and he continues to do much for us. Personally, reflecting on this gospel, doing good works with the word of God pleases the Lord, and what/who we encounter in life including people, things-not-going-your-way & other problems can be met in many ways, but whatever way you choose, remember that Jesus loves you. Amen.
