The covenant

John 8:51-59

Just as God changed Abram's name to Abraham, so too God gave us our names when we were baptized.

When God changed Abraham's name and He made a covenant with him, so too God made a covenant with us that we would His sons and daughters of God and He would be our Father.

When God made a covenant with Abraham, he promised that his descendants would be as numerous as the stars in the sky and that he would be blessed forever.  When God made a covenant with us, remember that God promised us eternal life and blessings.  What happened to us?

Do we still feel we are living up to the demands of the covenant?  Do we realize that it is God who gave us our meaning here on earth?

Let our lives reflect our total obedience to Jesus who is the way to the Father.
