It is God that Witnesses to Me, so I may Witness to Him! Impacts for Our Spiritual Life

It is God that Witnesses to Me, so I may Witness to Him! Impacts for Our Spiritual Life Scripture, especially during Lent, speaks to your heart and my heart. The readings are challenging today. They speak about the religious leaders’ hearts. In the first reading (not included within this media set), God is frustrated with His people even after all the things and signs He showed us. Even after seeing the Red Sea parting, the plagues, and the shaking of Mt. Sinai, the people created an image of the “god” they would worship. God became frustrated. Seeing signs is not enough. God turns to Moses. Look at what your people have done, says the Lord. What should I do with them who turned their back on Me? Moses responds. Hear more within the Homily. In the Gospel today, the Lord says . . . I haven’t come to tell you what you want to hear. I do not have to prove anything to you . . . the heart of man. It is God who authenticates Me! It is God that witnesses to Me, so I may witness to Him! I am not authenticated by any man! Wow! What a statement! Jesus tells us believe in my works and believe in me. Hear more within the Homily and understand the impacts for our spiritual life. Listen to: It is God that witnesses to Me, so I may witness to Him!
