Encourage one another and build one another up. 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Encourage one another and build one another up.

1 Thessalonians 5:11

1 Thessalonians 5:1-6, 9-11, Psalm 27 & Luke 4:31-37

Today I find myself struggling to write after waking up to the weirdest feeling of dizziness and extreme heat flashes combined with sweating. I know many of you are saying, “go to the doctor,” but I feel committed to making my Lector duties at an early morning Mass and I find it difficult not to be in class for my kids at the start of a new school year. I ask you all to pray for my recovery as I center my discernment today on encouraging one another today and building each other up.

Yesterday, the father of a young man we’ve been praying for healing from some type of terrible cancer who by the way has been healed wrote me sharing his feeling about obedience to faith. I pray his words have some meaning to us all that I cut and paste here:

“I believe that the most important habit of all that underscores and embodies our ability to excel as Christians is Romans 14:13. I wish there were more attention and discussion about this principle than anything else because it is the foundation that cascades into repairing all the malaise of humanity. Fundamental and simple, Romans 14:13 should be the bulwark of effort by everyone in pursuit of compliance with obedience to faith.”

“Then let us no longer judge one another, but rather resolve never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.” Romans 14:13

So we ask in prayer: Dear God, we pray today to always build one another up not judging but keeping each in prayer and spirit around Your Holy Will. We pray for my daughter Alexandra’s healing and peace. We pray my feelings today are temporary. We pray all of this in the Name of Christ Jesus. Amen.

God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28

Spirit led God inspired Christ fed

We Ask Each Other

We ask each other

How God rules our life?

Not binding in sin

Lifting Christ to fight

We ask each other

How God cares for our life?

Seeking His Word

Placing Trust in His fight

We ask each other

How God wants our right?

To build one another up

Never giving in to Satan’s fight

About Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins

My name is Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins. I first recognize Christ as my Savior in all things. I am married to my best friend and Soul-Mate in Christ, Antonia Cruz-Wiggins. I am a University of Florida graduate of Public Relations, a US Navy Veteran and a Montessori Elementary School Teacher. I love life and God's help of living it! I follow the Light of Christ in everything I do! I love writing poetry about the Lord and I create a new poem from each Scripture I discern in my daily mediations. You can almost follow the poem by looking at the readings for each day. I started sharing this small yet personal scripture study four years ago when one day I was reading the bible and the Holy Spirit moved me to share the verse with a group of about 40 Christian Men in my Emmaus Ministry who get together weekly to celebrate the Lord and talk about His Truth. Since then the number of people I share my study with has grown to over 650. I enjoy an open loving dialog about anything I write and I have strived to write what I know the Lord wants me to share steering clear of offending anyone’s spiritual beliefs because I share my work with people I meet in public when I strike up a conversation about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It took almost 2 years to begin writing what the Holy Spirit leads me to say. I believe that all Christians must unite as One Body of Christ’s Love to accomplish the joy of living with love, honor and respect. I reach out to Humanity to share His Salvation be it Baptist, Catholic, Protestant, Episcopal or any other religion or belief. I seek to mirror His Compassion, His Simpleness, His Charity and His Love. While I am Catholic, I believe we must all unite in the Lord to become One Body in Christ to bring our children back to The Church. I am humbled to share my study with you. Please feel free to comment any time. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is my Joy because I am a Disciple of His Truth. I am honored to share my Bible study with anyone you may recommend. As always, I remain, Yours in Christ, Thomas Joe Cruz-Wiggins
