This is the sense in which God&#8217;s Son Jesus Christ went to the Cross in order to do this for us.<br \/>\nHopefully this does not have to happen and happen again to us. Once is enough.<br \/>\nThe Bible teaches this. But, also in another sense it does happen again. Today, Christ is born in us as an angel from Heaven to Earth. Tomorrow He will come again\u2026 as a human angel on Earth. But, not without human beings continuing to do their part.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photos1.blogger.com\/blogger\/343\/3769\/1600\/PresidentDirections.jpg\"><img style=\"float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;\" src=\"http:\/\/photos1.blogger.com\/blogger\/343\/3769\/320\/PresidentDirections.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>4 views in 4 directions from the top of Mt.

This we know from St. Francis&#8217; wonderful prayer.<br \/>\nBut, as for faith and hope: it is better to first have and hold hope and faith in ourselves if we are to share it and give it to others. To be faith and hope you have to be able to give faith and hope. But, first to be it you must have it already. The Good News is that we all have faith and hope already inside of us. For, God has put it there through His own life that He lived already here on earth for us.<\/p>\n<p>Again, we thank God for a good prayer year that we have<br \/>\nexperienced in Christ.<br \/>\nAnd, we pray that the day may soon come<br \/>\nthat we all may be One in God&#8217;s name.
