This week: God as salvation at hand. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com. In the middle of the mad rush to purchase the world for one another God as salvation hands us life - abundant life - holy life - life that never ends. Good old Santa Claus and the accompanying ethic around this season does not want anything to do with the freedom with which God simply hands us life. God as salvation is not waiting for us to get it right. God as salvation is not watching to see who is naughty or nice. God as salvation has the table set and welcomes any and all to come and share in the life that is a feast of grace that is able to sustain us through all things. We come to this feast as beloved guests and it is as we are fed with this grace we become a part of its graciousness - ah, salvation at hand - in hand - as the community God brings to life endlessly. O God of love and new life, within your endless presence you ceaselessly draw us in - even when we think we do not belong in your presence. Praise be to you, O God. Amen. |
