ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHINGS
December 17, 2023 I came across these words from the great theologian Paul Tillich: “One cannot be strong without love. For love is not an irrelevant emotion; it is the blood of life.” Love is strong, but I guess the inverse is true. Strength is found in and through love. I think about the relationships of love that I have, from my spouse to my family to my church family. There are days that go by when I do appreciate what I have, but then a sacred nudge reminds me of all I receive through those relationships. There is strength found in the love people share. You love me beyond anything I can imagine, Lord God. In that gift, I find strength for this day. I am also thankful for those around me whose love blesses me beyond measure. It is their love as well that provides me with strength for whatever comes my way. Amen.
