This week: God as creatively proceeding. If you have any comments - adebelak@redeemerluth.com . God as creatively proceeding is not waiting for us to come along the way. God keeps moving even when we are set in our ways and ready to wag our fingers at others. God as creatively proceeding greets Fred Phelps - that 'God hates fags' pastor with the open arms that Phelps could not offer to others. That is how the creativity of our God proceeds. God as creatively proceeding does not wait for popular agreement for an action. God as creatively proceeding is always outside the box so that no one - no group - no issue - no righteous movement - will have the last word on any of us. That God as creatively proceeding is the God I long for - the God who can change all things - the God who will not be contained by my limited imagination. When God cannot be creative with God's unbounded love, we all fall down. O God of love and new life, wipe us off and stand us up and help us move along within the breath of your Spirit's renewal for life. Amen. |
