Preach

 My Prayer for Sunday....


May we not just go to church but be the church (referring to the church as a building is like referring to a person as a 2-by-4). May we not go so much to a place as to a PERSON. May our pledge of allegiance be Jesus is Lord (remembering Caesar is not). 


May we be expectant ...for sometimes rocks cry out, donkey's talk, dead people come alive, bushes burn, stuck people get freed up, lying brothel owners and religious terrorists encounter a scandalous grace and religious know-it-alls get a black eye by hearing, "prostitutes and tax collectors will get into the Kingdom of God before you".


May we remember nothing is impossible for God. May the wildfire of heartfelt devotion honor well the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and the pleasantness of brothers and sisters dwelling in unity be real. 


Do your work again, Lord. Do it again. Do it again.


Amen.
