The Last Adam

(1 Corinthians 15:45)

There’s only one God

whose strength can not be measured

and

whose wisdom is far beyond comprehension.

Who came down from His home

Not to exhibit His mighty power

or show off His knowledge.

But to live a life

like one of His creations -  Adam

As a baby

As a child

As a man

As a Teacher

As a Healer

As the Christ.

I’ll be watching you

18 Truly the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love,

(Psalm 33:38)

9 The LORD watches over the strangers;
he upholds the orphan and the widow,
but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.

(Psalm 146:9)

From today's lectionary

Maybe the reason

God’s presence is so unnerving

is that

He can see us

while we can only sense He’s there.

 

 

 

As we meditate on the Magi witnessing

God in the flesh,

let us remember the God of all the universes

is watching you.

Shine

As daylight becomes

shorter and shorter in duration

each day of the Advent season

(until Christmas), ¹

doesn’t mean we should lose our light

during this time of year.
