A Reflection
for Your Weekend
from Henri Nouwen
|
Claiming Joy
|
The great challenge is to claim the joy that Jesus offers us. Jesus is God of the living. Jesus came to bring life, and life in abundance. Jesus came to break the chain of wounds and needs and to overcome death. He came to give life, and life is joy. “I want my joy to be yours and for your joy to be complete” (John 15:11). Jesus says, “I came to overcome death and to give you life that does not end.”

Arrive to Sunday Service Prepared to Hear God’s Word Proclaimed
The reading for this Sunday, November 1, the Feast of All Saints is Matthew 5:1-12a. Here is a reflection on the passage.
In the Beatitudes, Jesus turns the world’s understanding of happiness upside down. The world tells us that happiness comes from success, wealth, power, and recognition. Jesus tells us that true blessedness is found in humility, mercy, purity of heart, peacemaking, and a hunger for righteousness.
Jesus is not promising that life will always be easy for those who follow him. Rather, he promises that God is especially near to those who suffer, those who seek justice, and those who strive to live with love and compassion.
As we gather for worship on Sunday, we might ask ourselves: Am I measuring my life by the world’s standards or by the standards of Jesus? Each day offers us opportunities to be merciful, to make peace, to comfort someone who is hurting, and to stand up for what is right.
The Beatitudes are more than words to admire. They are an invitation to live differently—to become the kind of people through whom others can experience the love of God.

Please remember those within our families and our Christian community who are sick and suffering. We look forward to seeing you on Sunday for Service at 10:00 a.m.
