Reflection of the Week- May 11th 2009
Evading God’s ways for the sake of human traditions won’t do. Jesus takes a hard line on this sort of subterfuge, concerned about justice and doing well, as he is. There are subtle, yet radical ways we conservatively or liberally do what we please, instead of seeking God and his wisdom for how to live in this world. What God is after is our hearts, that is, us and all of us, not some external performance based on human ways, which belies the truth. We wrongly assume that giving God ourselves will come at great cost, but in reality the expense is hardly worth consideration.
