Reflection for the Week- February 2nd, 2009
Pangs of loneliness mark us all. Displacement, alienation, restlessness, and instability so often permeate our culture and mindset. There is in us, however, a deep longing for a safe place to be and to dwell, for friends and for home. God graciously invites us, amidst the fragmentation and chaos of life, into a unique community with himself and others who are following in the footsteps of the crucified and risen One. We have a place there that is to saturate the whole of our lives here.
Dr. Gregory J. Laughery
