| Jesus Talking to Nicodemus, William Hole, 19th C. [PD-US] |
Jesus said to Nicodemus:
“Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert,
so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.”
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him might not perish
but might have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world,
but that the world might be saved through him.
Whoever believes in him will not be condemned,
but whoever does not believe has already been condemned,
because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
And this is the verdict,
that the light came into the world,
but people preferred darkness to light,
because their works were evil.
For everyone who does wicked things hates the light
and does not come toward the light,
so that his works might not be exposed.
But whoever lives the truth comes to the light,
so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God.

My husband’s sister is very ill. She found out her body is full of cancer. A side effect of some medication she took long ago for something else. She also has two compression fractures of the spine. She is 74. This is also hard on my mother-in-law who is in her late 90’s.
ReplyDeleteI'm praying for your sister-in-law, Paula, and for her mother. So hard on both of them. God bless you for your concern for their needs.
