T C O A F N D 2, 2014 exyÄxvà|ÉÇá ÉÇ à{x extw|Çzá "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." h p://www.rc.net/wcc 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) Corpus Christi Mission Statement We, the Catholic Community of Corpus Christi, are called to continue the work and teachings set forth by Jesus Christ.
