Meme: 5 things I love about Jesus.

Filed under: Odds and Ends — shelray @ 11:03 PM

Tagged by Alan/Sheepcat, here are my top five things I love about Jesus.

1. He is no respecter of persons.
2. He provides mercy to the merciful and comforts those who mourn.
3. I love how we are consumed by Him when we receive Him in the Eucharist.
4. Many sins are forgiven to those who love much.
5. He makes it possible for me to love Him through the perfected heart of His blessed mother.

I tag Kris, Tara and Catholic mom of 10 to list 5 things they love about Jesus and tag three others.

** Bonus – NFP vs. contraception videos by the seminarians 1, 2 and 3

  1. This is totally off subject, but you were recently blocked by the ‘system’ at my work. I am not surprised, considering the blog title, but I was ready to show anyone your explanation if challenged. It is a big disappointment, though.

    God bless y’all and keep up the good work.

  2. You may want to check out these NFP vs. Contraception videos that were made by some seminarians. They were well done and are very entertaining!

  4. Thanks for tagging me–I did this one after seeing it on Fr.Erik’s blog–here’s my answers:

    1. Jesus Loves Me. Jesus said, you did not choose Me, I choose you. Wow, Jesus choose, a lowly, worthless, self-indulgent sinner–me–to love.

    2. He Died For Me. Jesus loved me so much, the only reason He was crucified–was because of my sin. He paid my debt in full–so I can be with Him forever!

    3. Jesus Gives Me Himself. Jesus wants to be so intimately close to me, He gives His Body and Blood in the Eucharist. Our covenant of love is renewed, I promise to follow Him, and He nourishes me with the strength to resist the evil temptations of sin.

    4. Jesus Illuminates Me. I once was blind, but now I see–Jesus has shown me His great treasure trove of truth!–The Holy Catholic Church. I am home, my treasure is beautiful and vast. He gives me “gems” of understanding–what an intense gift.

    5. Jesus Is My Shepard. Jesus leads me along the paths of righteousness. He gives rules to follow, to protect me from sin. He gives friends who love and encourage me on my path. He gives the seven sacraments as strength for the journey. He gives still water in the midst of the storm, and when I mess-up, and go the wrong way, He ever so gently taps me with His staff, until once again I find His way.
