Pastor's reflections

Monthly faith reflections from Pastor Clark.

Preparing for Worship on May 26

5/23/2019

 
​“Those who love me will keep my word,” Jesus said.

Jesus invites us to surrender our will to God. Each of us have our own ways to win for ourselves happiness, security, admiration, and control. Those who love Jesus accept those ways for what they are--self-defeating. Instead of keeping their ways, they keep Jesus’ word of love and mercy. Father Richard Rohr calls this “a radical surrendering of our will to Another whom we trust more than ourselves.”

When have you had the experience of turning your life over to God? What happened? What is the Holy Spirit teaching you today?
