Peace is another word for God as is Light and Love and Jesus. I seek and I find and then I must pursue the next seeking and the next finding. I Peter 3:11 They must turn from evil and do good; they must seek peace and pursue it. [Psalm 34:14] Through the course of this [...]

Blinding Darkness
Posted in Ordinary Time, tagged darkness, hate, I John, light, love on November 9, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
I don’t hate anyone. I don’t think I hate anyone. It’s such a strong word, so bitter. It conjures up all kinds of negative feelings, dark looks, hostile language. But of course, I have said “I can’t stand her” or “I can barely tolerate being around him.” Am I any better? Have I split the [...]
Light and Me

I am no scientist so I don’t have much to add to any discussion about “light” as a phenomenon. I know that light travels very fast and mostly we see light as a reflection. I know light can be a wonderful respite in a dark place and intolerable with a migraine. But am I in [...]
Holy City Promise

For many believers, the “holy city” or “New Jerusalem” represent either some aspect of heaven or a literal reconstruction of the earthly Jerusalem. In any case, this “City-State” is entwined with the “promise” of Godly reconciliation. But do I care? Hebrews 11:13c, 16 And they [people of faith] admitted that they were aliens and strangers [...]

Every endeavor has rules. I hate that. Maybe it’s because I’m a child of the sixties [age-alert] but there’s some part of me that wants to rebel just at the whiff of rules. But why? Why have they become limitations instead of opportunities for excellence? II Timothy 2:5 Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete [...]
Glorified in the People

This is another one of the “in” phrases that really strikes hard on my heart. IN! On the inside! And that inside glory will manifest. And that’s amazing. I believe it. Jesus had that “in” stuff and that would make the most sense as to why people were drawn to Him. Light, love and glory. [...]
