Thought for the Day

Sharing in Christ’s great victory is not a matter of impressing the world with visible strength or splendid spectacle. It looks more like Jesus laying down his life. It looks more like Paul sitting in a Roman prison cell writing letters to encourage his friends. It looks more like pastors sharing Word and Sacrament on Sundays and visiting with people and encouraging them in the faithful fulfillment of their vocations between Sundays. It looks like an extended family of folks who may have little in common naturally, but who sit down at the table together because they share a common unity in Christ. It looks like people who are kind to their neighbors, who are generous to a fault, who listen more than talk and act more than preach, and who constantly point others away from themselves to Jesus.
