Rewards Matt. 10:40-42

40 “Those who receive you are also receiving me, and those who receive me are receiving the one who sent me. 41 Those who receive a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. Those who receive a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward. 42 I assure you that everybody who gives even a cup of cold water to these little ones because they are my disciples will certainly be rewarded.”

What this week’s scripture says to me is that we need to be aware of those around us and receive them with love. We should understand that is what God wants us to do. We should also listen to those who are around us carefully because they may have a message for us from our Heavenly Father.

Even amid seasons of doubt and grief, God offers us eternal life through the love of Christ Jesus, our Lord.

A Dilemma/Our new life in Christ Rom. 6:1-11

6 So what are we going to say? Should we continue sinning so grace will multiply? 2 Absolutely not! All of us died to sin. How can we still live in it? 3 Or don’t you know that all who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore, we were buried together with him through baptism into his death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too can walk in newness of life.

5 If we were united together in a death like his, we will also be united together in a resurrection like his. 6 This is what we know: the person that we used to be was crucified with him in order to get rid of the body that had been controlled by sin. That way we wouldn’t be slaves to sin anymore, 7 because a person who has died has been freed from sin’s power. 8 But if we died with Christ, we have faith that we will also live with him.

9 We know that Christ has been raised from the dead and he will never die again. Death no longer has power over him. 10 He died to sin once and for all with his death, but he lives for God with his life. 11 In the same way, you also should consider yourselves dead to sin but alive for God in Christ Jesus.

Paul tells us in the above scripture, that God will always forgive all our sins. He also makes it clear that living a life in which we don’t care whether we sin or not--because all our sins will always be forgiven--is not what our Heavenly Father wants. What we should be doing, according to Paul, if I may paraphrase, is to live our lives in a manner that is pleasing to our Heavenly Father,

God is a wonder-worker, and Christ is the wonder of love in our midst. This wondrous love is enough for every trouble we face.

Rigtheousness, Faithfulness, and Hope Rom. 5:1-11

5 Therefore, since we have been made righteous through his faithfulness, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 We have access by faith into this grace in which we stand through him, and we boast in the hope of God’s glory.
3 But not only that! We even take pride in our problems, because we know that trouble produces endurance, 4 endurance produces character, and character produces hope. 5 This hope doesn’t put us to shame, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

What the above scripture tells us and tells the world is that we should not constantly complain about the troubles that we have in life but learn from them. Learn that we are loved by our Heavenly Father and know that no matter how bad our troubles are God never turns away from us.

His Son, our Savior, always walks with us and the Holy Spirit lives in our hearts. With God walking with us we will be able to share with others and bring them home to our Heavenly Father.
Audie Miller CLM

God listens closely to the yearnings of our hearts. God is listening now. God has heard the cry of your heart and will be steadfast in love and grace to answer our every need.

Calling of Matthew Matthew 9:9-13

9 As Jesus continued on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at a kiosk for collecting taxes. He said to him, “Follow me,” and he got up and followed him. 10 As Jesus sat down to eat in Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners joined Jesus and his disciples at the table.
11 But when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” 12 When Jesus heard it, he said, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor, but sick people do. 13 Go and learn what this means: I want mercy and not sacrifice.[a] I didn’t come to call righteous people, but sinners.”

Our scripture for this week tells us of a situation from Jesus’ time that still exists today. The problem that I am referring to is what the Pharisees had to say about Jesus eating with and talking to the sinners. We still have people today who would criticize someone for talking with the outcasts of society. The question I ask is how else you do bring them home to their Heavenly Father if you don’t communicate with them.

Christ’s love is faithful and true. God’s blessings are sure. Be encouraged, dear friends your faith has made you well.

Go Make Disciples Matthew 28:16-20

16 Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshipped him, but some doubted. 18 Jesus came near and spoke to them, “I’ve received all authority in heaven and on earth.

19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to obey everything that I’ve commanded you. Look, I myself will be with you every day until the end of this present age.”

In the above scripture we are given the mission of the church. I would like to ask you if you think that is what we are doing.

Jesus said: “Remember, that I am with your always to the end of the age.”

The Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 12:3-13

3 So I want to make it clear to you that no one says, “Jesus is cursed!” when speaking by God’s Spirit, and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit. 4 There are different spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; 5 and there are different ministries and the same Lord;
6 and there are different activities but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. 7 A demonstration of the Spirit is given to each person for the common good. 8 A word of wisdom is given by the Spirit to one person, a word of wisdom is given by the Spirit to one person, a word of knowledge to another according to the same Spirit.

The scripture for this week helps to understand the work of the Holy Spirit. It helps us to understand the gifts of the Holy Spirit and to understand that we are given the gifts by the Holy Spirt to glorify God and not ourselves.

Rivers of living water flow out from Jesus, blessing each one of us with new life.

Meditation for May 17, by Audie Miller, CLM
Acension of Jesus Luke 24:50-53

50 He led them out as far as Bethany, where he lifted his hands and blessed them. 51 As he blessed them, he left them and was taken up to heaven. 52 They worshipped him and returned to Jerusalem overwhelmed with joy. 53 And they were continuously in the temple praising God.

Today’s scripture should make us realize that God has fulfilled his promises. His gospel has gone out to all peoples through the Holy Spirit, who has equipped the church for the mission, and we ask that same Spirit to use us today to bring the gospel to all peoples everywhere.
Audie Miller CLM

Wait in patience for God’s Spirit. Wait in longing for the hope to which we are called. God will fill us with Christ’s glorious Spirit and clothe us with power on high.

I Won’t Leave You As Orphans John 14:15-17

15 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16 I will ask the Father, and he will send another Companion, who will be with you forever. 17 This Companion is the Spirit of Truth, whom the world can’t receive because it neither sees him nor recognizes him. You know him, because he lives with you and will be with you. “

In this week’s scripture Jesus explains who will be with us and guide until he returns. Jesus tells us that the Father will send us another Companion who will be with us forever. The Companion Jesus is talking about is the Holy Spirit.

I often feel very sad for those of the world who chose not accept Jesus as their personal Savior and therefore miss the love of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I pray that all of God’s children chose to come home to the Father by accepting the Son.

Even when we are tested by the refiner’s fire, God brings us to a place of laughter and light on the other side of our trials. The Advocate meets our suffering and heals us in holy love.

The way, the Truth, the Life John 14:5-7 Common Eng. Bible

5 Thomas asked, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you have really known me, you will also know the Father. From now on you know him and have seen him.”

This week’s scripture should explain clearly to anyone who has questions who Jesus is and of his importance to our salvation.
Audie Miller, CLM

God’s faithful love is true, and God's strength is enough. Rest in God’s love and trust in God’s strength, for these are all we need,

7 So Jesus spoke again, “I assure you that I am the gate of the sheep. 8 All who came before me were thieves and outlaws, but the sheep didn’t listen to them. 9 I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out and find pasture. 10 The thief enters only to steal, kill, and destroy. I came so that they could have life—indeed, so that they could live life to the fullest.
11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

This week’s scripture makes us aware of how important it is for us to listen for Jesus talking to us at all times. He is the good shepherd, and we will recognize him when he is talking to us. We should remember that he loves all of us equally. So if we hear someone talking to us and they tell us to do anything but to love God, our Heavenly Father with all our heart, mind, and soul, with every fiber of our being and also to love our neighbor as we love ourselves, then this is not the Good Shepherd talking to us. We should not listen to them.
Audie Miller, CLM

The Good Shepherd anoints our heads with oil, nourishes us with living waters, delivers us from evil, and watches over us day and night. Because of our Shepherd, we shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
