I just got done with my sermon for Sunday - now it’s time to marinate on it and let it soak. I normally have more than just a couple of days for that but life is crazy right now. Here’s an excerpt…

For some wacky reason God decided to roll the dice with humanity and invite us to partake in a partnership with Him. A partnership where He trusts us with His Story and His Spirit. Now all evidence would lead us to the contrary of this proposal. We are a selfish, lazy, vile species at times.

But He delights in seeing us put into practice – fruit – who He is. He seems to love seeing His Spirit get hands and feet and legs. It seems that it’s part of His good pleasure to see the fruit of His work – the outworkings and proof of His inner work on and in us.
