By faith, to be at one with Life.

Morning: Psalms 131, 132; 2 Kings 23:4-25; I Corinthians 12:1-11
Evening: Psalms 134, 135; Matthew 9:18-26

If Jesus is the Creative Word through whom all things were made, it is fair to expect that it is his nature to bring new life and healing.  And yet, we are mortal and know that life and health are temporary states for us.  Jesus calls us – through faith in him – not to immortality but to living well within the limits of our humanity.  He seeks to heal our Life, and teach us to endure, with grace and courage, the suffering we humans inevitably face on this earthly pilgrimage … thus, by faith, to be at one with Life.
