God Guides Us On Our Challenging Path to the Light of Christ,
and Calls Us to Share It and Everything
With Everyone.
Psalm 65:4
Happy are those whom you choose and bring near to live in your courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.
Galatians 4:4-5
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children.
…
Words of Grace For Today
Happy are those.
Happy are we, as some of those, as we are, who are adopted by God as children. God has chosen us and taken us in when we least deserve anything good. God has given us bounty beyond bounty of things good. Nothing can take that from us.
God calls us to share all this with everyone we encounter, the promise, the reality, the reception of gifts, the challenges, the call to share it all.
God help us, for the tasks are as impossible as the gifts are astounding.
How can we but dance and sing our thanks and praise for all God has given us, including the answer to the age-old question: what is the meaning of life?
Which is none other than to share all we have with those in need.
God help us if we don’t. God help us to do this, each day.
