Arrested was John Jesus heard
Gospel of Matthew Ch 4 v- 12 thru 17
12 When he heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew to Galilee. 13 He left Nazareth and went to live in Capernaum by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 that what had been said through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled: 15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way to the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles, 16 the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has arisen.” 17 From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
What has happened to you when you withdraw from something after the news is divulged? Yes, the news of Jesus! Did you feel the need to withdraw as Jesus did when He heard John had been arrested? His withdrawal is what we mimic to find His purpose of what we are to do next readying us for preaching that seems the only way life could direct where passion is poured into your soul of Salvation to share as much as accept what kind of persistence you’ll need to learn how to respect. Yes, you’ll have to learn how to respect others no matter their call for some might be ugly yet some might seem ready to fight as their wall because we learn that Jesus results in conflict even though His peace may seem exquisite to us the Truth can baffle some that’s all. We can’t judge their confusion for we must learn to give them a solution and seek Redemption to instill love, faith and hope of grace where mercy is the peace we live even in conflict ready to recall the Laws of the Lord to live free of persecution caring for what will fall. Amen.
Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. Silence for the prayers of others dealing with the war in Ukraine. In the Holy Spirit we pray our brothers in Kairos especially a prayer for our men in blue. We pray for our sister-in-law Carmen grandmother of Brittany who is a mother of four and 33 years old who had brain cancer stage four now cancer free. We pray for Holy Mother Church. We pray for our Holy Mother. Novena prayer Day Three is for Thelma. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Arrested was John Jesus heard**
Arrested was John Jesus heard
Galilee withdrew after the news
Sea calling Capernaum leaving Nazareth obscured
Naphtali and Zebulun region He did choose
Fulfilling Prophet Isaiah’s saying
Light great seen arisen overshadowing sea walking way
Naphtali and Zebulun’s land Jordan beyond escaping
Death’s darkness sitting Gentiles of Galilee in dismay
Preaching time began by Jesus’ call
He began to adamantly say
Heaven’s Kingdom is for us all
Repent therefore and learn to obey and pray
