Sunday Reflection (February 19, 2023)

The first coming of Jesus Christ was a dawning whose brightness grows until Christ comes again (2 Peter 1:16-19).  This brightness grows in that the message of God’s love and compassion revealed in Jesus Christ has gone beyond Palestine unto the ends of the earth, even unto Galax and where you live. We are part of a growing brightness in which the sharing of God’s love and compassion happens most often in the simple caring compassionate things that we do.

Because of Jesus Christ, a new day/age has begun. Indeed, it is a new age that introduces a new way of understanding life and a new way of living life. This brightness continues to grow within us and among us because the Holy Spirit creates us as instruments of divine love and compassion in the way of Jesus Christ.
