The Reign of God as spilling. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com . The Reign of God as spilling will never be able to be handled by us. There will not be a vessel into which it can be contained so that none of it spills out in an inappropriate place and on inappropriate people. The spilling has already taken place - the mess is at hand. We are left to deal with the spilling out of God's grace that will always be making us deal with a new reality for which we have not planned. The Reign of God as spilling will infuriate all of us - as we all want to have life somewhat under our control. The Reign of God as spilling will refresh us - as we so often need to have a bucket of something refreshing and life-giving simply dumped on our lap so that we have to go about the day outside of the ruts we so often find ourselves. O God of love and new life, dump the fullness of your grace upon us and help us deal with every gracious bit of it. Amen. |
