This is the season of anticipation and hope.
We anticipate God's reaching into this world, into these lives with Love and Grace.
We hope for something better than the unrest, corruption and ruthlessness that we see - we hope for peace on earth and goodwill toward all.
If we truly anticipate these things and hope for them, we are either actively involved in living them or we are passively expecting some kind of supernatural intervention instead of us living them.
This is the season of Love and Grace, peace on earth and goodwill toward all - but only if WE put those things in the world around us, thus fulfilling what we are taught, commanded and shown by God.
The world needs these things especially now.
The world around you, the people around you, need these things desperately.
These things have been put within each of us for the world around us.
How will we BE Love and Grace, Peace on Earth and Goodwill toward All this year?
Be God's hands and feet, God's voice and heart in the world around you.
Because some folks around you anticipate that in hope.
Pastor Jamie
