Honest diagnosis first

Monday May 14th, Revelation 22: On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. God’s vision for this place called earth is one of wholeness and healing. In the beginning was one tree of life, now there are trees for every tribe and nation and the leaves are for the healing of the nations. From what do we need healing? One of the first tasks in healing is diagnosis. Perhaps what the church should be about is diagnosis and healing rather than justification and self preservation. We are called into a conversation as to what would be the most healing for all of humanity, especially the least, lost and lonely.
