Evening: Psalm 44; Luke 17:1-10
What
is Christians’ work in the world? Jesus said, “blessed are the
peacemakers.” St. Paul affirms that, in Christ, God was reconciling the
world to himself. The human world is off-balance, broken and fractious,
fraught with squabbles and conflicts. This world needs peace and
reconciliation, forgiveness and faith. The connection is clear …
disciples of Jesus are peacemakers for this broken world. Their work,
in the power of the Spirit, is reconciliation. There is much of it to
be done close to home. And that’s always a good place to start. All
the virtues begin at home.
