A Wellspring of Life Abundant
"A Wellspring of Life Abundant"
Sermon by The Rev. Ranie Neislar
June 2, 2024
We need time to be centered in our spirits, because we can't focus on being meaningful human beings and engaging as meaningful human beings, and being in the ways that make the most sense as God's creations in this world, when we are hard at work. When we are focused on going to work, going to school, making dinner, paying bills, of course, getting groceries, we can't focus on why we are here and what we are doing as human beings in the world. But those are very important parts of being humans. Those things that we have to do, but they don't leave very much room for us to stay grounded on the important parts of how we live our lives. So that is the why for the Sabbath, God created it for us in order that we might live the richest, most faithful, life affirming, full life.
And so as we live out our lifelong discernment, discernment as people of faith, may we be accompanied by courage to lean into the undisturbed spaces of comfort in order that God's Spirit, along with our own spirits, may reach the tame deserts. And may we be part of transforming them from the withered and the dry to a wellspring of life abundant.
