“Being a city on a hill doesn’t mean living in isolation. Being a city on a hill doesn’t mean looking down on others. Being a city on a hill shining God’s light out into the world certainly does not mean building walls to keep other out; arresting those who come to us seeking safety and security; or tearing children from the arms of their parents. And no, imprisoning families together doesn’t make it any better.”
God’s spirit of gentleness will give us comfort through changing times; God’s spirit of restlessness will keep calling us to dream dreams, to see visions of what’s next and to make bold new decisions.
Being human is hard but it comes with so many wonderful gifts.
When we are faced with bad times, we can dig down and find the faith for quiet meditation and for joyous hymns of praise, we can find the newness that we have gained in Christ, to find our purpose away from hopeless fears.
Morning has broken yet again. Another day, another dawn. It’s a moment that many of us so often overlook, that we take for granted.
Our bones are dry, our hope is gone, and we are doomed. How long O Lord?
“There is no denying that there are many different voices claiming to speak for God in our world today. In our own country there are conflicting claims about the call of Christ. Politicians, preachers, leaders, and cable news talking heads all claim the label Christian even when the messages they relay are vastly different.”
