Morning: Psalms 137:1-6, 144; Jeremiah 35:1-19; I Corinthians 12:27-13:3
People
think about God as a service provider rather than as an employer. We
don’t look for God under ‘Help Wanted!’ but under ‘Goods and Services’.
We come with requests, with “Help!” instead with “How may I help?”
Jesus calls disciples not as hangers-on but as workers in a harvest of
wholeness and well-being on the earth. It is now ready. It is what we’re
here for. And what we need is already here … with one exception – that
we all need to be employed in nurturing life and wholeness in ourselves
and in one another. Our help is required.
Daily readings, thoughts from Graham. Pilgrims on the Way to the shrine of the apostle James in Spain shout a greeting to one another: “Ultreya!”; "Keep going", "Press on", “Onward”.
