So, here we are at
the end of another week. We look back at
all that has filled our days this first full week of June. We notice the people in whom God showed up
disguised as our life. Like Abraham and
Sarah, sometimes we entertain angels unaware in our lives or at we bump into God’s
saints without that being on our calendars.
We look back at moments of laughter and times of frustration and moments
when we were on cruise control ~ just putting one foot in front of the
other. And we know God was there. We pray for God to open our ears, eyes,
minds, imaginations, and life so God might get a word in edgewise. We pray for holy pauses and deep breaths
before we go offer preaching and pontificating convinced that we know the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. We realize that we see in a mirror dimly, we
don’t always have life all figured out.
But we want to, because others seem to have been given the owner’s
manual, and we missed that day in school.
May God remind us that everyone is trying to paint the moving train of
life. That in a world of constant change
that rearranges our carefully planned and plotted lives, God’s love is the
ground of our being and God shelter us in the storms of life. So take my life today, and let it be a blessing
to those I meet. Take this moment and
this day, let me get caught up in praise.
May I realize that it is in You I stand and stay. Let God’s love have the first, middle, and
last word this day. Amen.
