What God is doing is made plain in Jesus

Morning: Psalm 119:49-72; Genesis 16:1-14; Hebrews 9:15-28
Evening: Psalm 49; John 5:19-29

If you wonder what God is like, look at Jesus. If you wonder what God is doing in the world, look at Jesus. For wherever you catch a glimpse of work that you think Jesus would do, you are probably actually witnessing what God is doing in the world … bringing new life, shaping the new creation, healing, forming life-giving communities, overcoming the power of death (greed, hatred, self-centredness, abuse, violence …). Do not be astonished that what God is doing is made plain in Jesus.
