Do you see him????

                I am enclosing this link so that you can listen to this sermon that I heard today, if you have time. It was about these two guys walking down a road and a third man join them ,and they were so unfocus that the person that they were talking to was Jesus and they did not even know it. This was a very interesting story for me ,and so I kept hearing  the sermon and as I was listening  to the way the Pastor had explained it, and  it  made me realize that I can relate to these two gentlemen. I too sometimes do not see Jesus and therfore do not acknowledge that he is in my presence. In case you have time to read your bibles, the story came out of Luke chapter 24 13-54 and the reading of the word reads as follows:

13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.

14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.
41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.
43 And he took it, and did eat before them.
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:
53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen


        Can I tell you that I do not go to this church . I have only been here twice. I just  happened to register to get free emails from them and today I was checking my emails and I received a newsletter from them. So I read it and decided to listen to the sermon this past sunday. Their website is http://www.innovationlife.org/  and go to media. All this Pastor's sermons are place in this audio and you can even watch the sermon if you want to. I thought what a wonderful way to spread the message of Jesus.

What a beautiful day?????

 OMG.... Yes what a beautiful day.. Thank you lord for all your days but, thanks for this day specially because it was just perfect. No rain , mid 70's a little breezy and sunny. Not muggy. Just perfect. Gotta love it. Now if only all our days are like this would be so great.
  On another note, I hardly ever get to enjoy the day. With work and all it's hard to see days like this unless I request off or call out. Hopefully this summer will stay around for a little while.
Today I miss out on girls night out. It's a bunch of my friends and myself get together and go to the casino and eat and just hang out. I can not make it . It's like a big slumber party. Hope they have fun.

Weather is crazy and I hope whever you are , you are having a great day.
