We Make the Road by Walking
Week 28
Chapter 49
The Practice of….setting things right.
The Scripture…”Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed. What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is. And all who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure.” 1st John 3: 2-3
The Devotion
Judgment is a word that for most of us holds frightening innuendo. Most of us have experienced judgment by our peers, by our family and friends at one time or another. If you grew up in the church world…you most likely experienced a fear of “judgment day.” Fortunately, as we grow in knowledge and faith we come to understand judgment as God understands it….. Judgment is restoring balance, harmony and well being. Judgment is not the end point but the beginning of turning what is wrong to right and what is evil to good.
We are God’s beloved children and God’s desire is that we are continually evolving in our relationship, so that, in setting things right we receive the peace, love and light of Christ….we become holy as Christ is holy ….for we are wholly loved by God.
