This week: God as resurrection full. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com. To understand God as resurrection full means that we must have a grand imagination that is informed by the power of resurrection even when the power of death is looking us in the face. Imagine resurrection - life that is - even when death appears bigger than life. It is not life as we already have it. It is life as full as God shapes life. Therefore, we do not see it completely yet. God as resurrection full is pulling us into that life so that in each day - in each encounter with death - in each of the games death lays on us - we begin to find life that death really cannot touch - resurrection life. We come out as new people and death comes out looking different to us. God as resurrection full is that place in which we can rest because death is not invited onto the blanket of resurrection where God holds a feast of a luncheon for all who have been taken up into the grand imagination of God's Reigning fullness. O God of love and new life, shape our imagination and help us to move into that which is not yet - but that which contains the vision of your glory. Amen. |
