4. sunday in Advent
An argument developed between some of John's disciples and a certain Jew over the matter of ceremonial washing. They came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, that man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan--the one you testified about--well, he is baptizing, and everyone is going to him." To this John replied, "A man can receive only what is given him from heaven. You yourselves can testify that I said, `I am not the Christ but am sent ahead of him.' The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom's voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete. He must become greater; I must become less. "The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all. He testifies to what he has seen and heard, but no one accepts his testimony. The man who has accepted it has certified that God is truthful. For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit. The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him."

There is so much arguing in the church of our God. Why cant we agree. One is our leader and thats the Lord Jesus. He gave his life for us so that we can live.
Is it so difficult that it is nesesaraly to read a lot of books to understand what Jesus want. He wants us to live.
He is seeking those people who lives in believing that they can what they will. That the willpower of man is the willpower of God.
If we believe in what is pure we believe in Love. And Jesus is love. God is love.
We are arguing about these things, but only one thing is the good thing. Thats believing in life. Belive and there will come hard days, but you can cope with them. Jesus killed the devil and thats why we can be happy and have a christmas party.
But if you are alone and feel that being dead is better than being alive then there is a problem. Keep going. Dont give up.
There will come a day where you here a goat and you will understand that Life is better than dead.
God is Life.
God is Love.
Dont give up. Keep trusting that there is a path for you that Jesus have made. Try to have your head above the watter and listen to the birds.
If you are in prison try to listen to your inner feelings. Jesus is in your heart. He loves you.
You can love yourself by remembering that you are a child of God.
We are not John. We are not Jesus. We are simple human beings. Jesus loves us. He is in front of you. He is inside you. He is behind you.
You dont believe in God. But God believes in you.
Try to pray. Its hard to see how small we are compared to God. But sooner or later he will hear your prayer.
Do what is good in the eyes of God. He will never be your enemy. He loves those who believe in him. And to believe in Jesus is to believe that whatever sin you have done God loves you. There is forgiveness for all sinners.
Trust me.
There is no other God than Life.
There is no other God than Love.
Love is the greatest power in the universe.
Send your prayer to God. He will listen, but you have to be patient.
