Heaven and Earth Collide


"God has visited His people" Luke 7:16

How has God visited His people? Through His Son. 
Why? Because He loves us, wants us to love Him, and love other people

In Scripture, we read of One who goes against human 'rules' and beyond boxes of human labels and how things 'should be.'In Jesus, we see compassion, mercy, forgiveness, and love that cares enough to correct. In Jesus, the Son, we see the Father because He is the Father’s love in human form. Therefore, our Father is not distant, but very much a part of who are as humans. He wants for the there to be that same unity and love that seems incomprehensible, impenetrable between He and His Son to be shared with us.

Through Jesus, in His Body, Our God has visited earth. Through His Cross, Jesus has conquered every human tragedy, ache, or anxiety that we could experience. Through this act, we become God’s children…we are His people. Through the Eucharist and the Holy Spirit, the Father continues to visit and love His children. God has visited His people and His people can rejoice because we are loved and have been given new life. We must sit with this…let this Truth sink in… and then share it.
