In worship, we celebrated by hearing the stories of witness. Each of the readings today, including the Psalm, were focused on the commission of witness to the world. The Psalmist assures us that there is nothing that brings joy than to witness. The Acts of the Apostles also reinforces the need to witness to the life-changing and life-giving presence of God in our world. Our commission is complicated by not being a first-hand witness but we know of God’s presence in our past and the promise of God’s restoration in our future, as long as we continue on the path. That’s the message of hope.
I invite your comments,
