Presentation transcript:

Luke 1

All through human history humanity is tempted to live by the myth of scarcity and we must hear God’s lyric of abundance anew.

Is God, the Source of all life enough for us Is God, the Source of all life enough for us? Can utter reliance on God empower us to relax our death grip on goods long enough to see what is enough? Will it cause us to respond with generosity?

It is all gift. Do I recognize and acknowledge that everything I have is a gift from God?

The Holy Spirit We are not human beings trying to be spiritual The Holy Spirit We are not human beings trying to be spiritual. We are inherently spiritual beings

How do we become more fully human?

The Spirit works in individuals for the sake of the whole community and the sake of the planet  it’s moving from the inside out toward the cosmic scope of redemption!

God is so communal that the divine presence resides within us God is so communal that the divine presence resides within us! The very nature of this abiding is love.

“The very physical structure of the universe is love. ” “The very physical structure of the universe is love.” – Teilhard de Chardin

“God is love.” – 1 John 4:8

“Above all things I believe in love. Love is like oxygen “Above all things I believe in love. Love is like oxygen. Love is a many splendored thing, love lifts us up where we belong! All you need is love!” – Christian in Moulin Rouge

“Flesh give birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit…the wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” – John 3:6-8

“The very nature of God, therefore, is to seek out the deepest possible communion and friendship with every last creature on this earth.” – Catherine LaCurgna

What does it look like for you this week to seek out the deepest possible communion with God and embody divine love?
