Answering God – Day 9
When we are hurt it is natural to hide. However when we meet with the church we have a chance to be healed.

Too often we come to worship with an agenda pre-written and we rarely come prepared to empty ourselves of all the confusion within us that God may replace the evil within us for good.
Wherever and however we worship we must be careful to not miss meeting God – being good stewards of corporate silence is one way to help us listen better.
We should not be surprised to discover that the fingerprints of our Creator are seen in all of nature and science and art. Yet we are too often loathe to seek God outside of the familiarity of our own faith community
We have nothing to loose and much to gain when we choose to work alongside people of other faiths fro the common good
Too often we use our own light to extinguish that of another’s instead of choosing to use all light to help everyone on the journey homeward
To follow Jesus’ example of love in action requires more than wearing a wristband with a slogan on it
Sometimes we think Lent is about getting rid of all the ‘noise’ around us. However if we seek too much quiet we run the risk of ignoring the voice of the Holy Spirit.
It is all to easy to be caught up in the workings of our Church and forget that we are not called to stay still and worship a Creed but follow a Saviour along the Way
Lent is kept best by lovers so in preparing for a 40 day date with God we must choose to put aside other loves and distractions and gaze only on our Beloved
