Redeemer Devotions for May 5, 2014

Adventures... in Hope - Redeemer Devotions 

The Reign of God as going for it. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com .

 

The Reign of God as going for it is the power handed to us to become something new. There are so many things in our lives that seem to be able to hold us down and keep us just as we have always been. Therefore, too often we do not take the steps into new life. The Reign of God as going for it is the movement brought into our lives by the Holy Spirit. This is not a wild, do-anything-you-desire action. It is the kind of life action that is drawn out of us by our God who is beckoning us to enter into the vision of God's peaceable Reign. Therefore, as we are 'going for it', we are going for the life of promise in which we partake in the healing of all things. The Reign of God as going for it may be the way we take on the moments of this day. Rather than letting the powers of the world that try to own us - lead us, we will take that leap into the way of life that God has been holding out to us all along the way.

 

O God of love and new life, inspire us again to go for it.  Amen.
