Blessings Through Obedience
Healing belongs to us today. God has provided it for us in several ways. Under the Old Covenant, He promised to take sickness away from us if we would obey His commandments, which under the New Covenant is the commandment of love. If we walk in love, we should walk in divine healing. We are to be rooted and grounded in love, it is to be what stabilizes and gives us strength. Love is the way to inheriting the eternal, God kind of life that starts when we are saved.

People, meet your stereotype before it meets you
The Lectionary texts for today speak about thirst for life. The people thirst for water in the wilderness. The Samaritan woman at the well meets the One who gives the water of eternal life. Paul speaks of God’s love being “poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.†The Samaritan woman didn’t recognize her need for “Living Waterâ€, instead we find a woman who is secluded to an island in her own life. Simon and Garfunkel in their song entitled “I am a Rock†express this idea well: “A fortress deep and mighty, that none may penetrate. I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain. It’s laughter and its loving that I disdain. I am a rock, I am an island...I have my books and my poetry to protect me; I am shielded in my armor, hiding in my room, safe within my womb. I touch no one and no one touches me. I am a rock, I am an island. And a rock feels no pain; and an island never cries.â€

1 John 1:1-4 : All I Want for Christmas is Eternal lIfe
11 year old Gayla Peevey in 1953 sang all she wanted for Christmas was a Hippopotamus. The lyrics went like this: "I want a hippopotamus for Christmas, Only a hippopotamus will do; Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy, I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy. I can see me now on Christmas morning, creeping down the stairs; Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes; To see a hippo hero standing there." All of us are longing for eternal life. This is why our tendency as fallen human beings is to look for life in all the wrong places. Such places include our careers, our children, material possessions, sexuality, luxury, technology, entertainment. If this is the case with us, we might as well be looking to get life and joy from a hippopotamus. Here in our text the apostle John points us to the right place. He says: the Life appeared. We have seen it. We proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and has appeared to us. Only Jesus can give us the life and joy all of us are seeking.
