The Praise of the Father
Matthew 11:25-27.
At that time Jesus exclaimed, "I give praise to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike. Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him."
WORD - Reflection
Struck word / Phrase - "All things have been handed over to me by my Father"
The phrase struck me because of all that everything that I have received, I received it from Him. It is the shining light that guides the way for us, and I know sometimes, we're not always successful to follow the rules that are why I'm feeling depressed that I still sin. For my direction, I need to know how to change my ways for the better because sins are just a repeating cycle and it is US who can stop it, no one else. With the Father helping me, it's possible.
Jesus reveals himself to the childlike, in my opinion, it's the simple people, who try to be good in this world. It is a privilege to have been part of this and it's not everyone has the opportunity to do this, share your reflection for today.
