Sunday Reflection (May 17, 2020)

May our witness of the loving and kind God elicit the spiritual curiosity of those interested in knowing about the loving and compassionate God revealed in Jesus Christ (1 Peter 3:15-18). This revelation also brings judgment against us in that it bears witness to the evil and wrong we do to each other. Although our world is full of despair brought about by hatred, malice, and ruthlessness, and Kovid-19, we hope in God’s plan to bring all creation into the orbit of God’s love and that we have a part in that plan.

We have hope because God works in our lives through the Holy Spirit to lead us in the way of Christ. May we bear witness of our hope in Christ with confidence, humility, and respect. May we build a foundation for a society that reflects the value of human dignity for everyone because everyone is created in God’s Image.
