March 17, 2022 "The Light of the World who rescues us from the chaos, the darkness, the void" Lent 2 Midweek 2022
As Asaph laments, however, he remembers that the very act of Creation was a deed of deliverance. Making things from nothing, the Lord did battle. Nothingness is not neutral. Existence is not natural to nothingness. Nihilism rejects all reality as without meaning and purpose, neither created nor formed. That’s the religion of the post-modern man, confessing that we have killed God, and with His death His Word has been silenced. But that is a lie. The most ardent nihilist believer in nothing will question why live at all.

March 13, 2022 "Jesus speaking and you listening is not child’s play" Reminiscere 2022
Jesus’ interaction with the Syro-Phoenecian woman is a lovely picture of how He interacts with you. What He spoke was as much for her and His disciples as it is for you. In the struggle between what you experience and what He says, Jesus builds trust. He exposes truths that the sinner hates. He ruins misplaced beliefs and false hopes. He devastates selfish esteem and pride. Anything and anyone who gets in His way to saving you are leveled and destroyed.
Jesus doesn’t want trust that falters when you don’t get the answer you want right away. He doesn’t want trust that is dependent on your legacy or ancestry. He doesn’t want trust that claims to deserve or have earned His favor. These are the categories of false hope that talking heads, actors, and puppets wish you to believe. Sit at His feet, listen to what He says, and do whatever He tells you.
