For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and that of the Gospel will save it

For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and that of the Gospel will save it. Mark 8:35

 Genesis 11:1-9, Psalm 33:10-11, 12-13, 14-15 & Mark 8:34-9:1
 
The LORD scattered His people around the world making sure they spoke different languages biblical scholars believe because the LORD saw the building of a city as an attempt to build an urban culture separate from God. The sacred writer also was attempting to show how different languages all over the world arose from the scattering of humanity. When we separate ourselves from God, He shows us His discourse through different means of sufferings. It’s when we take His sufferings and turn them into His Will that He in turn blesses us with graces of peace and unity.
 
I was talking to my mother yesterday how I feel about wasting so much of my life up to about seven years ago by not giving my all to God’s Will and living a life according to the teachings Christ Jesus. She commented, “you are burning the candle at both ends.” I couldn’t agree more. I find an energy in me I’ve never felt before because of my surrender to His Plan for my life. To many people I might appear to have lost my life but in His Word I have found my Eternal Life of sharing and living in His Truth. I pray my love of loving Christ Jesus never makes me afraid of proclaiming His Truth to live for His Will. If you are ashamed of Jesus Christ, then you are ashamed of living a life in faith, hope, charity and love and will spend Eternity in torment. For, “Whoever is ashamed of Me and of My words in this faithless and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
 
So we ask in prayer: My LORD and My God, today we pray to lose our life in Your Son’s Truth to accomplish all we do for His Sake. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
 
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”

Ashamed Not of My Word to Forever Speak
 
Speaking the same tongue was norm
Building a city proved God’s scorn
Scattered and confused speech the way
God’s Will for Humanity came to play
 
The LORD blesses the people who follow Him
Knowing their love of loving His kin
An inheritance of joy gained from within
The nation choosing Truth over Lucifer’s sin
 
Deny one’s self to take up His Cross
Follow the Way of Truth of humanity’s Boss
No profit in gaining the world of deceit
Ashamed not of My Word to forever speak

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
