ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHINGS

January 27, 2020

Prayer for the Week:

There has always been

There will always be

those who desire to maintain

a high level of anxiety,

fretfulness, foreboding.

There has always been

There will always be

those who call themselves Christian

who preach an imminent end:

– the signs are real!

– the signs are present!

– the signs are now!

They want us to know fear,

and not you, O Merciful God.

They want us to experience fear,

and not you, O Gentle God.

The instrument of choice seeks,

not peace,

but constant

uncertainty and apprehension.

There has always been

There will always be

an alternative voice

an alternative vision

from those who read the scriptures

and find mercy and gentleness.

Those who see in Jesus

a new world already being birthed

through acts of mercy and kindness.

There has always been

There will always be

those who truly believe the words:

Perfect love casts out all fear.

Jesus believed it.

He lived it.

And so shall we.

Amen.
