Redeemer Devotions for December 26, 2013

Adventures... in Hope - Redeemer Devotions 

This week: God as Glory in time and space. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com .

 

In a world in which so much of our lives seem to be confronted with everything but the glory of God it is difficult to see it or even hear it. God as Glory in time in space is not a reality other than the one we know so well. God as Glory in time and space makes room for the Glory of God to grab hold of us even when we are being pulled under by all the powers of the day that are so often able to confound us and confuse us. God as Glory in time and space is not a distant God - not the God 'up there.' This God of ours take what we see and takes what we hear and opens our eyes and ears so that we do not miss God's glorious presence in, with, and under all the stuff that usually appears only as garbage. God as Glory in time and space changes us - not the world around us. We as we see this Glory begin to change and rearrange the world around us to make room for the unfolding Glory of God that can fulfill promises.

 

O God of love and new life, open up our hearts and deliver us into the arms of your Glorious Reign.   Amen.
