Season of the EPIPHANY ... Frankincense
Where IS HE+...
The ONE+ born
King of the Jews?
Frankincense... that fragrant herb...
also from the resin...
which helps the bitternesss of the myrrh.
MEDITATION
Our dear Heavenly FATHER, we thank THEE for always bringing enough frankincense to mix with the bitter myrrh.
We pray, O dear FATHER, that THOU canst see JESUS when THOU lookest upon our hearts.
We pray for THY FATHERLY goodness to rest upon us during our trials ... that we may bring glory unto THEE.
Sanctify our trials and make them a sweet savor unto THEE, O LORD OUR GOD.
O LORD GOD, let it never be said, when THOU lookest upon me, "Where IS HE+?Have you hidden your light under a bushel? "
Remember, O MY+ child: If you deny ME+ before men, I + will deny you before MY+ FATHER and before the Heavenly Angels.
Where IS HE+,
in your life,
MY child ?

The Season of the EPIPHANY.... Myrrh

The Gift of Myrrh.... that bitter herb ... amber teardrops of resin from gashes in the bark of that rough shrub, which grows in stony, unforgiving ground.
This gift of Divine Sorrow and Suffering was given to Our LORD JESUS as HE+ lay in the manger, for there was no room for HIM+ in the inn.
MEDITATION
Dear LORD JESUS, O THOU+ Who+ wast sent to earth to suffer for mankind, receive the suffering of our hearts.
O LORD, we know our suffering has been caused by humans... others and our own selves... humans who have not followed THEE+.
O MASTER of All-Suffering, hear our cry.
Heal my heart of the wounds lodged in my soul. Heal those who have been wounded by me, when I walked in darkness and ignorance of THEE+.
I thank THEE+ for the suffering of Thy+ heart and Thy+ body that THOU+ hast carried for me... before I even knew THEE+.
May I never forget Thy+ teardrops, O LORD. Let them reside in the cup of my heart.
Glory be to THEE+ O Great Redeemer; Glory be to THEE+.
