"Every one who believes in him will be raised up at the last day"
Is your hope in this present life only?
What about the life to come a er our physical death? God puts in
the heart of every living person the desire for unending life and happiness. While physical death claims each of us at the appointed me,
God gives us something which death cannot touch - his own divine
life and sustaining power.
We wait with hope for the Lord to raise us up to everlasƟng life.
Jesus made an incredible promise to his disciples and a claim
which only God can make and deliver: Whoever sees and believes in
Jesus, the Son of God, shall have everlas ng life and be raised up at
the last day (John 6:40)! How can we see Jesus? He is present in his
word , in the breaking of the bread, and in the church, the body of
Christ. The Lord Jesus reveals himself in many countless ways to
those who seek him with eyes of faith. When we read the word of
God in the Bible Jesus speaks to us and he reveals to us the mind
and heart of our heavenly Father. When we approach the table of
the Lord, Jesus offers himself as spiritual food which produces the
very life of God within us, I am the bread of life. He promises unbroken fellowship and freedom from the fear of being forsaken or cut
off from everlas ng life with God. And he offers us the hope of sharing in his resurrec on - abundant life without end. Do you recognize
the Lord's presence in your life and do you long for the day when
you will see him face to face?
The Holy Spirit is the key to growth in faith.
What is faith and how do we grow in it? Faith is an en rely free
gi which God offers us through his Son Jesus Christ. We could not
approach God if he did not first approach us and draw us to himself.
The Lord Jesus gives us his Holy Spirit who works in us to open our
ears to hear God's word and to respond to it with trust and submission. The Holy Spirit is the key to our growing in faith. The Holy Spirit
is our teacher and guide who makes our faith come alive as we cooperate with his help and instruc on.
Faith is ac ve submission to the One who created us in love and
who sustains us by his grace and power. To obey in faith is to submit
freely to the word that has been heard, because its truth has been
guaranteed by God, who is Truth itself. We can entrust ourselves
wholly to God and believe wholeheartedly what he says.
To live, grow, and persevere in faith to the end we must nourish it
with the word of God. Augus ne of Hippo (354-430 AD) said:
“I believe, in order to understand; and I understand, the be er to
believe.” Jesus promises that those who accept him as their Lord
and Savior and submit to his word will be raised up to immortal life
with him in the Day of Judgment. Ask the Lord Jesus to strengthen
your faith and hope in the promise of eternal life with God in his
kingdom of everlas ng peace and joy?
"Lord Jesus Christ, your death and resurrec on brought life and
hope where there was once only despair and defeat. Give me
unwavering faith, unshakeable hope, and the fire of your unquenchable love that endures today, tomorrow, and forever."

Prayer for the month of November.
Dear Lord,
Help me to spread your fragrance wherever I go.
Flood my soul with your spirit and life. Penetrate
and possess my whole being so u erly that all my
life may only be a radiance of yours. Shine through
me, and be so in me that every soul I come in
contact with may feel your presence in my soul.
Let them look up and see no longer me, but only
you, O Lord! Stay with me and then I will begin to
shine as you do; so to shine as to be a light to
others. The light, O Lord, will be all from you; none
of it will be mine. It will be you shining on others
through me.
Let me thus praise you in the way which you love
best, by shining on those around me. Let me preach
you without preaching, not by words but by
example, by the catching force, the sympathe c
influence of what I do, the evident fullness of the
love my heart bears to you.
Amen.
(St. John Henry Newman)
