Good morning to you. Hasn’t this weather been great! I don’t think we are ever satisfied but I could take a couple of months of this weather. I was reading in the Book of John this week - what a great Disciple- I can imagine him on the seashore with James and the other apostles. Time may have dulled his memory but not his vision of JESUS. The sea shores may have wrinkled his face, but they didn’t soften his love for JESUS. He had been with HIM - how could he forget - the wine that moments before had been water - John could probably still taste it! The mud placed on the eyes of the blind man in Jerusalem - He could still remember it! The aroma of Mary’s perfume as it filled the room - He could still smell it! And the VOICE - HIS VOICE - John could still hear it! “I am the light of the world -- I am the door -- I am the Way, the Truth, the Life.” “I will come back and take you to be with ME.”
