Sermon: “The One is Shining Forth”
The Psalm that comes at the end of our series speaks of an
active God whose light shines for all time and in all places. God is
not silent, but calls the people to remember that they, too, can act
on God’s behalf, holding all suffering peoples in the hands of
prayer and care and transforming the world that will shine bright
into the future. May it be so.
