Readings: Isaiah 62:1-2a, 3-8; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11;Lk 5:1-11
Our world still has lots of areas in which we can make contributions. It’s important that all of us, no matter our inefficiencies and insufficiencies (which are no excuse), get involved in making the world better. Whatever your boat is, God invites you just as you are, to offer what you have (whether that’s a talent, ability, gift, strength, passion, profession, knowledge, experience, status, personality, etc.). Find some way of making this world a better place.
God knows how to cleanse and purify you, perfect and strengthen you, anoint and empower you once you consciously say yes (if you allow Him to do His part while you do your part of growth and cooperation).
Surprisingly, you’ll realise that, with God, you’ll achieve much more than you’d have reaped with your own toiling alone (God can never steal your resources, such as time and energy, and can never be outdone in justice)!
May Jesus give us the strength to know and do what we were made to do in this world.
May Almighty God bless you, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
