When the Future and Fertility of all Creation Seem to Shift: remember Salvation through Faith
You’ve survived a couple of perplexing days; the Future and Fertility of all Creation seemed to have shifted. In response to Social-Outcry our Lord has sent a few Good-Vibes out into the World. Embrace this quote from Howard Schultz written in today’s Journal; “Starbuck’s CEO urged his employees to show Kindness, Compassion, Empathy, and LOVE.”[1] I have no idea if Mr. Schultz is Devout, a Politician, or a Spiritual Vortex but he’s close to the True Promise of God: Salvation through Faith.
Look to God to embrace His people all over this Globe-of-Opportunity. No matter who or what impending dangers folks conjure-up at night; our Lord refutes them with each Rising-Son. Christ, Lord-of-Love and Political-Peacemakers,’ has made Prophets out of midair and Novices through His-Living-Words that identify through our Lord’s Glassdoor-Media.
“Yet I consider life of no importance to me, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear witness to the gospel of God’s grace.
But now I know that none of you to whom I preached the kingdom during my travels will ever see my face again. And so I solemnly declare to you this day that I am not responsible for the blood of any of you, for I did not shrink from proclaiming to you the entire plan of God. Keep watch over yourselves and over the whole flock of which the holy Spirit has appointed you overseers, in which you tend the church of God that he acquired with his own blood.
I know that after my departure savage wolves will come among you, and they will not spare the flock. And from your own group, men will come forward perverting the truth to draw the disciples away after them.” (Acts 20:21-30 NABRE)
To whom has the Holy Spirit deemed you as overseer? Our Lord doesn’t second guess or make mistakes this side of Paradise; however, Coldhearted people relentlessly slip-up and hurt others. Please continue your quest for understanding and behave according to Gospel so the Devil won’t draw you away.
