April 5, 2014 Psalm
130
Saturday Ezekiel
36:8-15
Luke
24:44-53
“You
are my witnesses”
“Tell
me what you saw”, said the police officer at the scene of the crime. Eyewitness testimony is vital in the solving
of crimes. While perspectives may vary,
the sharing of all information allows for a fuller understanding of the events
that occurred.
Most
days are a blur. I don’t often pay
attention to all the details around me.
What am I missing as I let each day slip by? What have I failed to witness?
We
are each witnesses. We are given
glimpses everyday of God’s love and grace.
Maybe it is in a simple smile or in the sharing of a meal with one who
is without a home. Glimpses of grace can
be seen as the love of Christ overcomes the pain of betrayal. It is revealed as forgiveness is offered and
relationships are restored.
We
are the witnesses to these glimpses. We
are called to not only open our eyes to see this grace, but to share it with
others. We are Christ’s witnesses.
What
have you seen? Where have you glimpsed
God’s love and grace revealed? How have
you shared your glimpses with others?
