Mission of Hope 2018Going off the map requires that we learn more of Jesus, and in the process, we must unlearn ourselves.
The habits so far have been about us doing something, Blessing, Eating with people, but today is not about what we do, but about remembering to listen for what God is doing. Lord, teach us to hear you, so we can respond to you.
One of Jesus' habits involved eating good food with "bad" people. These encounters around the table didn't just fill people's stomachs, they helped form the community and transform the lives of those who broke bread with Jesus. Can sharing a meal still have that kind of impact?
Jesus never changes, but he is always changing us! As we follow him into uncharted territory, what new habits do we need develop in order to live as missionaries in our neighborhoods?
Have you ever been lost? It can be a scary experience to not know where you are or how to get back on track. That is why the Holy Spirit has been sent to guide us into unknown territory with a spirit of adventure!
Pentecost reminds us that the Good News of Jesus's saving grace, love and purpose is meant for all the world! How do you see the Holy Spirit working in the world, and in your heart today, to draw us into the Lord's love? Wait, receive, and then move with him!
Loving God involves confessing where we have fallen short to God, trusting that his promises never fail. This healing inspires us to intercede for one another in prayer.
Our faith bears fruit in loving our neighbor. While we mean to speak life into people, we often bring them down and hurt them. God works in our lives to love others who are made in his image.
While life around us is swirling with chaos, fear and anxiety, it is our faith that anchors us in his presence. Out of this faith, we are able to persevere as transformed people.
