Shade Tree Wisdom 4/14/12
We are celebrating a Living Christ and Lord. Reading the Letter to the Hebrews helps us to shape that truth clearly again, for it is all about JESUS; God’s action in Jesus to save us from sin. We are clear to walk on this light again, in faith, the human action that faith sets us to walk on The Way.
Here is how chapter 13 begins: Let brotherly love continue. 2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. 3 Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. 4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. 5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6 So we can confidently say, ;The Lord is my helper, what can man do unto me?”
The final words, v. 20-21, are: Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, 21 equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
Easter blessings.
