Jesus performed a miracle by the four-drachma coin in the mouth of the fish in settlement of his and Peter taxes. Therefore we must the same faith as Peter, who had faith in Jesus commands to throw out a line at the lake and open the mouth of the first fish caught.

God's love flows through His people!


Coin in the fish mouth

Matthew 17:24-27
The Temple Tax

24 After Jesus and his disciples arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma temple taxcame to Peter and asked, �Doesn�t your teacher pay the temple tax?�
25 �Yes, he does,� he replied.
When Peter came into the house, Jesus was the first to speak. �What do you think, Simon?� he asked.�From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes�from their own children or from others?�
26 �From others,� Peter answered.
�Then the children are exempt,� Jesus said to him. 27 �But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.�

�God, You are my Father. If I asked for my earthly father�s advice, he�d give it to me. Now I need Your wisdom to deal with my (state your difficulties, troubles and pressing situations)"

Below the overflowing of the widows's olive oil is another financial miracles and supernatural debt cancellation found in the scriptures.

2 Kings 4:1-7
The Widow�s Olive Oil
4 The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, �Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the Lord. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves.�
2 Elisha replied to her, �How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?�
�Your servant has nothing there at all,� she said, �except a small jar of olive oil.�
3 Elisha said, �Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don�t ask for just a few. 4 Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.�
5 She left him and shut the door behind her and her sons. They brought the jars to her and she kept pouring. 6 When all the jars were full, she said to her son, �Bring me another one.�
But he replied, �There is not a jar left.� Then the oil stopped flowing.
7 She went and told the man of God, and he said, �Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.�


Love God and love the people around you.

 

The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.

And the second is, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 
There is none other commandment greater than these.




Below we observe, a beautiful divine/human moment in which Jesus responds in a totally human way while expressing the amazing love and grace of God. Jesus demonstrate 'Empathy' which is brings out the his feeling of compassion towards the mother's grief for her only son. Empathy is when we allow ourselves for a moment to feel what that person might be feeling.

Luke 7:11-17

11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. 12 As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out�the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, �Don�t cry.�
14 Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, �Young man, I say to you, get up!� 15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 They were all filled with awe and praised God. �A great prophet has appeared among us,� they said. �God has come to help his people.� 17 This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding country.

Lord, JESUS your speedy help I need. Grant me Lord my needs...JESUS, truly I Trust Your Word WILL HEAL

 
Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You Lord for healing me, touching my heart and showing me the light when I turned to You through Your most beloved son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, Lord I am surrendering to Your most Holy WILL my prayer and request in this pressing times of desperate and urgent need. I know Lord, You know what is best for me, as in Psalm 139:16b "Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." I always believe and trust that Lord, You only have to say the WORD and I will be HEALED. By this faith and confidence in Your love, mercy and mighty power Heavenly Father, I come before your cross today to ask for financial blessing and grace to get my life back on right track. My faith keeps me strong even it is smaller than a mustard seed, and I know you will provide for me and the people I love. I do not seek a large sum of money. I do not trouble you for unneeded comforts or luxuries. I only ask for enough money to relieve my financial woes and ease this stress. Father at the foot of Christ cross, I place and surrender all my financial griefs to You. Give me the means to do your work, and spread your Love. I have only so much to give, if only I were allowed the chance. Lord, I trust in You and Your speedy help I trust. In JESUS name I pray, Amen.



Proverbs 22:9
Whoever has a bountiful eye will be blessed, for he shares his bread with the poor.



Matthew 25:35-40
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.�
�Then the righteous will answer him, �Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?�
�The King will reply, �Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.�

Closing of the Year of Faith

 
Lord, thank you for giving me the gift of faith. 
Now fill me with your grace 
so that I may put my faith to work.


Last October 11, Pope Benedict XVI released Porta Fidei, an apostolic letter proclaiming the Year of Faith, which will begin on October 11, 2012, and the closing will be on the 24 November 2013, Sunday (Feast of Christ the King).






Solemn Profession of Faith unites the entire universal Church in giving witness to the ancient and apostolic faith of the Catholic Church.

I believe in one God, 
the Father, the Almighty, 
maker of heaven and earth, 
of all that is, 
seen and unseen. 
I believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, 
the only Son of God, 
eternally begotten of the Father, 
God from God, 
Light from Light, 
true God from true God, 
begotten, not made, 
of one Being with the Father. 
Through him all things were made. 
For us men and for our salvation, 
he came down from heaven: 
by the power of the Holy Spirit 
he became incarnate of the Virgin Mary, 
and became man. 
For our sake he was crucified 
under Pontius Pilate; 
he suffered death and was buried. 
On the third day he rose again 
in accordance with the Scriptures; 
he ascended into heaven 
and is seated at the right hand of the Father. 
He will come again in glory 
to judge the living and the dead, 
and his kingdom will have no end. 
I believe in the Holy Spirit, 
the Lord, the giver of life, 
who proceeds from the Father and the Son. 
With the Father and the Son 
he is worshipped and glorified. 
He has spoken through the Prophets. 
I believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. 
I acknowledge one baptism 
for the forgiveness of sins. 
I look for the resurrection of the dead, 
and the life of the world to come. 
Amen.

Importance of the Bible as we Christians do our mobile or smart phones.

 

Have we ever wondered, what would happen if we Christians treated our Bible like we treat our cell phones.



What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if We flipped through it several times a day?
What if we used it to receive text messages?
What if we treated it like we couldn�t live without it?
What if we gave it to kids as gifts?
What if we used it as we traveled?
What if we used it in case of an emergency?
What if we upgraded it to get the latest version?
Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone,
we don�t ever have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill!
