The Followers of Jesus as a movement. If you have any comments adebelak@redeemerluth.com . The Followers of Jesus as a movement can first be seen in the simple movement of each of our lives. It need not be a whole mass of people holding placards and marching in the streets. It must be a part of the simple movements within our day. How we address ourselves to others - How we respond to the good, the bad, the ugly - How we love those we love and those we hate - How we honor and consider holy the lives of all. That is a movement that has the power to transform us as we move along in that way. It is the power to also transform the world around us. It does not mean that the world will begin to go along with us. Rather, in our new movement among others, our ways may change also. We may learn new moves that more and more reflect the life of the Jesus we call Lord. O God of love and new life, within the simplicity of each moment of the day, the fullness of your Reign is available to us. Empower us to step into that life. Amen. |
