There
is a great difference between a faith that declares
I must know -- and a faith that declares
I trust.
--The Rev. Dr. Douglass M. Bailey
God's Good News
God
calls each of us. But the response each of us gives will be
different. The important thing is for the response to be authentic. For
some, it may be more authentic to slow down, to go fishing, to
ride a horse and see the wonder of God's world for the first time in years.
For others, the authentic response may be to take a risk that you never
believed possible.
The good
news is that God who creates us and loves us enables
us to make the right response at the right time. When this
occurs, the Kingdom of God breaks into our ordinary lives. A wise
person has said that whenever a human life is brought into
harmony with God's purpose the Kingdom is present.
--from the sermon "God's Good News" by The Rev. Mimsy Jones.
