Just what is Heaven and what does it mean to us? Why does God live up high?
What do you think? Was it right for Jesus to test Philip by asking him to feed 5000 people?
We observe moral challenges as we consciously impact the world.
Created in God’s image, can we find Theologian, Paul Tillich’s idea, “God is the Ground of our Being.”
To be active agents of change we can only lead others as far as we ourselves have gone. We have no ability to affirm or communicate to another person that they are good or special until we know it strongly ourselves.
Mark’s Gospel makes no mention of a baby in a manger, shepherds or angels.
In Mark we are introduced to the grown up, ready to act Jesus.
Be revitalized by knowing this Jesus, attuned to our darkness of despair, disbelief and aching loneliness that affects many humans today. This is where we find the ‘Gold’ without the ‘Glitter’.
James and John struggle to get the picture of what Jesus was telling them.
However Bartimaeus, even though he was blind, did get the picture.
He had faith to become part of that contingent that walked with Jesus towards Jerusalem.
Sometimes our the path to God may mean ‘turning around’ (Metanoia) and seeing things differently.
