The Dance

Readings for the Sixth Sunday of Easter - Acts 15:1-2, 22-29;  Revelation 21:10-14, 22-23;  John 14:23-29Let's be clear - being a follower of Jesus Christ is not for the weak of heart.  Not just because it could lead to being ostracized or having to make difficult decisions, although both can be true.  Rather, I speak of the gray cloud of unknowing.  Those times when we are uncertain what the right decision is and we are hesitant to step out in faith.  It would be much easier if someone (the Church?  God?  Our spouse?) would simply tell us what to do.  We don't have to engage - we just do as we are told.  But that's not the life of faith to which we are called.  We are invited into a dance w/ the Holy Spirit.  And the Church.  And our loved ones.  And we are never settled.  That ground continually shifts.  The end draws nearer - two more episodes to go.  We will wrap up this podcast on the Feast of Pentecost after over five years and 720 episodes.  Thank you to all of you for your support, your trust and your presence.  I'm humbled and honored.  Have a question or a comment?  As always, I can be reached at [email protected]
