Message from Rev. Lea
The past several months have been a pretty big whirlwind. A
proposal, wedding plans, a major leak, fun pre-wedding parties,
and finally our big day. It was such a joy to celebrate with our
family and friends as we witnessed before God and one another
the vow of our love. Rev. Cathie Leimenstoll's wedding homily
was based on two texts: 1 Corinthians 13 (Traditionally called the
"Love" chapter) and Proverbs 27, verse 17 "Iron sharpens iron,
and one person sharpens the wit of another." Both of these
readings call us to a different kind of love - a love that sacrifices
ones self for the betterment of the other. Indeed this is what we
are called to do and be for one another as Christians. Just as
husband and wife enter into a "set apart covenant" so do all who
claim the name of Jesus.
Living and loving the way Jesus calls us to is not easy - in fact it
breeds conflict. This week's lectionary text from 1 Peter
addresses what it means to suffer for the glory of God. What are
the ways God is calling us to put aside ourselves for His glory?
How might the body of Christ strengthen you for this task? How
does seeking to love in this way change your thoughts, your
prayers, you actions? Join us for worship this week as we look
deeper into what it means to love sacrificially.
Blessings, Rev. Lea Griffith :)
