Psalm 103
God has been so generous to us! God has given us life when death was close, has been generous when we abandoned God’s justice, has cared for us as a doting parent does, and all in spite of our lives being so short. Even angels and creation bless God and we join with them!
Isaiah 30: 18-21
A promise to those enslaved in Babylon that God will act. As God did on Easter Day.
John 14: 15-31
Jesus uses further images to assure us that in the absence of physical contact with him, the Holy Spirit will be present to provide the same support. We will be in contact with the Spirit and with Jesus as we enact the same kind of love. Even though the wider world does not see or understand or follow this kind of love, we are able to do so, enabled by God’s power in the Holy Spirit.
This week’s collect:
Lord of life and power,
through the mighty resurrection of your Son,
you have overcome the old order of sin and death
and have made all things new in him.
May we, being dead to sin
and alive to you in Jesus Christ,
reign with him in glory,
who with you and the Holy Spirit is alive,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
