I could blame it on the times or I could blame it on my own crazy brain but the scripture I used yesterday was actually the lectionary reading for today. I honestly didn’t know what day it was….Yikes!
One of my favorite authors and theologians is Frederich Buechner. I wanted to share a quote with you tonight.
“The grace of God means something like: “Here is your life. You might never have been, but you are, because the party wouldn’t have been complete without you. Here is the world. Beautiful and terrible things will happen. Don’t be afraid. I am with you. Nothing can ever separate us. It’s for you I created the universe. I love you.”
There’s only one catch. Like any other gift, the gift of grace can be yours only if you’ll reach out and take it.
Maybe being able to reach out and take it is a gift too.â€
The party wouldn’t have been complete without you. Not a single one of you. You are all important and loved and God created the universe for YOU! Be safe. Goodnight.
