Share the Good News

~~~ Isaiah 45:6C-8, 18, 21C-25 ~~~ Psalm 85 ~~~ Luke 7:18B-23 ~~~

Go and tell John what you have seen and heard...

I sometimes wonder why the people of Biblical times 
could not agree that Jesus was the Messiah.
Jesus was speaking and healing in plain sight for all to see.

When you are a witness to something out of the ordinary
do you keep it to yourself or do you tell others?

So often we are quick to repeat gossip...
Jesus is instructing the two disciples sent by John
to share all that they had seen and heard.


I will hear what God proclaims;
the LORD –for he proclaims peace to his people.

All that can be reported about Jesus is good.
He comes bring love, peace, and forgiveness.

Raise your voice and tell the Good News

We too are being invited to tell the Good News.
The Good News of our salvation.
The Good News from a God who loves us.

...the blind regain their sight,
the lame walk,
lepers are cleansed,
the deaf hear, the dead are raised, 
the poor have the good news proclaimed to them. 

It is our vocation to proclaim the Good News.
Do not keep quiet.
Do not be shy.
Share what you know to be true
 about our loving God.

Share the message with your words and your actions.
We are responsible for continuing the spread
of the Good News.

Are you up to the challenge?
Tell at least one person every day...
'Jesus loves you'.

Say it until it feels comfortable.
Soon it will become a wonderful habit.

May you be Blessed with Peace.

JOY
to the World!
