November 23rd Feast of Christ the king
Jesus, praise and glory to You.
Let us all praise You and love You with all of our being.
Let us realize that You truly are the King of Kings, and the
Lord of Lords.
Let us worship You with our whole being.
Let us all be on fire to not only serve You, but be willing to
tell others of our witness of how You came into our lives and
saved us.
Let our witness show Your true power and loving care.
Let us see You in the "Breaking of the Bread" that shows us
the love that came to us from the cross.
Let us all fall down in worship of You and feel that presence
of You in our hearts.
Amen and Amen.
Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday AT THE KING'S FEET
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=11/23/2014
"Christ must reign until God has put all enemies under His feet."
-1 Corinthians 15:25
The Old Testament describes God's plan as making His enemies His
footstool (Ps 110:1). Reigning kings in Old Testament days placed
their feet on the prone bodies of their enemies as a sign of bringing
them to submission. God's vanquished enemies would likewise be
subject to His will (1 Cor 15:27-28).
In the New Testament, God's enemies are described as humbled beneath
Jesus' feet (Mt 22:44). Jesus, God Himself, died on His cross for all
His enemies (Rm 5:8). He reigns on His cross as crucified King
(Jn 19:19).
We all were enemies of Christ the King as we lived in sin (Rm 5:10).
Then we came to know Jesus as Savior, Lord, God, and King, and we
repented. We came to the foot of His cross and were shocked speechless
when we realized how much Jesus, King of the universe, suffered out of
love for us (Is 52:15). We humbled ourselves at His crucified feet
(Mt 22:44), and we fell at His feet to worship, thank, and praise Him
(Lk 17:16).
King Jesus washed our feet; now we "must wash each other's feet"
(Jn 13:14). We wash King Jesus' feet by feeding the hungry, welcoming
strangers, visiting prisoners, and comforting the ill (Mt 25:35ff).
Have you subjected everything to King Jesus? Give Him your all. Place
"all things under His feet" (1 Cor 15:27).
Prayer: Jesus, "King of kings" (Rv 19:16), I rejoice to be Your subject.
To You "be honor and everlasting rule!" (1 Tm 6:16)
Promise: "Thus says the Lord God: I Myself will look after and tend My
sheep." -Ez 34:11
Praise: Praise Jesus, the King of Glory, the risen King of kings and
Lord of lords! Alleluia!
Monday ALL FOR THE ONE
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=11/24/2014
"She from her want has given what she could not afford." -Luke 21:4
Tuesday THE WORST FEARS ARE YET TO COME
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=11/25/2014
"...in the sky fearful omens and great signs." -Luke 21:11

being transformed from glory to glory into His very image by the
Lord Who is the Spirit." -2 Corinthians 3:18
Jesus promised to be with us always even to the end of the world
(Mt 28:20). At the Last Supper, He said: "This is My body," "This
is My blood" (Mk 14:22, 24), and "Do this as a remembrance of Me"
(Lk 22:19). After receiving the Holy Spirit, the early Church

PM Internet Prayer Requests
http://www.presentationministries.com/prayer/prayer.asp
Hi, I humbly ask Our Lord Christ Jesus to intercede and help me find
a job that I can have until retirement. I also ask for the blessed
virgins help in conquering my addiction and my disability and not to
let it overcome my life and therefore adversely affect my daughter
and wife. I finally humbly ask for peace to reign amongst my wider
family and for reconciliation to occur where it needs too. Thanks be
to God.

Pope Francis, Shepherd of Truth

Notable quotations from Pope Francis and official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
THE ELDERLY
"SO GOOD"
It is so good to go visit an elderly person! Look at our children:
sometimes we see them listless and sad; they go visit an elderly person
and become joyful!
"A BIG BROTHER OR SISTER"
Homes for the elderly should be the "lungs" of humanity in a town, a
neighborhood or a parish. They should be the "sanctuaries" of humanity
where one who is old and weak is cared for and protected like a big
brother or sister.
FACING REALITY
However, the reality is that elderly people are being abandoned: the
elderly are so often discarded with an attitude of abandonment, which
is actually real and hidden euthanasia! It is the result of a throw
away culture which is so harmful to our world.
(Source: Meeting with the elderly, 9/28/2014)
