Communion With The Lord 2
Today’s Reading: Revelation 3:20
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+3%3A20&version=RSV

It was early in the morning, just after sunrise when Jesus got up and went to a secluded place to pray.

Jesus, being one with the Father, with perfect knowledge of the complexities of this world, with a mission to accomplish; made constant use of prayer to be always in communion with God, the Father.

The same should happen with us!

You are in communion with God when you keep open, through prayer, a channel of communication with him; when you live according to his principles and act according to his will.

Communion is a means of communication between our earthly existence and eternal life. Communion is the seamless integration between God the Father and his children.

However, it is necessary that each communion be spontaneous, because Jesus does not force anyone to serve; He simply invites you: “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.”

This is a gracious invitation that Jesus makes to you, to address important issues; as, for example, your relationship with God.

Dialogue And Communion

Dialogue 2
Today’s Reading: Jeremiah 10:20-25
There was never a time when we spoke as much as today and yet had so little dialogue. No matter the means of communication or the meetings around the table, if what prevails is the opinion of some or the defense of certain points of view.

There is corruption everywhere, power and strength are imposed; making it impossible to open and search for the truth. This happens because there is no dialogue without empathy. We need to really take an interest in the lives of others and be willing to serve and love them. God communicates with us but at the same time, through forgiveness, removes any barrier that separates us from him. Thus the dialogue makes forgiveness possible and results in a pleasant communion with the people we love.

Do not forget: our dialogue with God is the way to dialogue with our brothers. Because God forgives us and loves us, we can forgive and love. Only true love can enable us to have a real interest in others.
