Evening: Psalm 49; Luke 17:20-37
Did
you ever hear someone say, “Look busy, the boss is coming”? Or,
“There’s an inspection tomorrow. Make sure everything’s shipshape”?
It’s almost like, “I’d do that if I could get away with it.” It’s
similar to the theology that thinks God is watching you to catch you out
in some kind of misdemeanor. But Jesus counters that when he says,
“The kingdom of God is among you.” In other words, if you were going to
catch it, you would already be in trouble. Something else must be
happening … Maybe God really loves you after all. Imagine!
