Redeemer Devotions for May 9, 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 steps up and takes the day as though the love of God is the power of the day and will be forever and ever. That is the place in which we are place by the power of the Holy Spirit. And now - we are invited to live - to go for it - to embrace this Reign and to enter into the life that blossoms when our God rules and leads us. The Reign of God as going for it is meant to shake us up and therefore we are the instruments that shake up the world around us. The biases and prejudices of the day are no longer the life that exists among us. Rather, we stand up and say 'what's that?' - 'that is not the life' - 'that is what was an what wants to take over again.'  The Reign of God as going for it steps up to say 'no' to some things and a very strong 'yes' to others. The yes will always have the face of an unbounding forgiveness and love.

 

O God of love and new life, help us say put to life the "yes" of your Reign.    Amen.
