January 22, 2022 The Invitation

“Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and curing every disease and every sickness among the people.” ~Matthew 4: 23 

Jesus is on the move. He has emerged from the wilderness, and he begins his ministry with an undeniable energy. His movement is invitational, and he meets people right where they are living their lives in ordinary ways. His invitation beckons people to dare to believe in the possibility of collective change. He feeds those who are hungry for justice, and he claims those who have been outcast and despised. He is love on the move. This Spirit of Christ still moves in and around us. We are invited each day, to come and follow and allow the life of Christ to grow in us. Will we hear the summons and answer?
