Christ as Us

We Shouldn't Win the Battle

Fight with those who fight with me,
Unless we are fighting against You.

If we are fighting for Truth,
For Faith, for Hope, for Justice
Come along side and fight with us.

But if we are fighting for hatred,
for anger, for evil, for death,
Open the eyes of our hearts and show us how we are wrong.

Please don't let us build up an army to tear down Your Kingdom.



On this day about two thousand years ago, Jesus was no where to be found. His body no longer lay in the tomb, and everyone was mourning over his disappearance. Where did Jesus go? He lives in us. He works through us. If we let him in, he lives FOR us, so we have nothing to lose.

Sometimes we forget our God is walking right beside us because we can't physically hear him speak. Never forget He is inside of you, working in and through you always.

In the wise words of St. Patrick:

"Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me."


Happy Easter.
