The Reign of God as spilling. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com . The Reign of God as spilling. Just watch how a spill goes out of control quite quickly. Once you think you have it contained it is swirling in a new direction and onto something else. This Reign of God as spilling reminds us that our lives may be changed in ways we do not expect and even in ways we do not want them to change. When the grace of God becomes a power for life that is now dripping onto us, the manner in which we move and live begins to move in a new way. When God's love for us drives us to move in ways we have not wanted to go - new life begins and that can happen very suddenly. The Reign of God as spilling changes everything. Even the simple things of the day must be seen with new eyes because we are no longer in the same shape we were in prior to this gracious spilling out of God's Reign. O God of love and new life, encourage us to respond your Reign spilling down upon us with the substance that comes within that Reign. Amen. |
