The texts for Sunday, October 23, 2011 were: Leviticus 19:1–2, 15–18; Psalm 1; 1 Thessalonians 2:1–8; and Matthew 22:34–46
… God’s will, desire, dream
expressed in the whole law and the prophets
from Genesis to Leviticus to Jesus to Revelation to beyond
God’s dream and prophetic cry
is that all of God’s children flourish
That is—all God’s creation flourish
And God’s law is that parent standing there saying, “She’s my daughter—no you can’t!”
This is my creation—you cannot do anything you want with it.
Because it is worth too much
Because you are worth too much…
