Children of God chores

Tuesday August 5th, Isaiah 55: 5 Surely you will summon nations you know not, and nations that do not know you will hasten to you, because of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, for he has endowed you with splendor." These were the people of God, chosen by God to be a light to the world. Well, they didn’t do a great job. But before we get all righteous, let us recall that through Christ that mantle has been given to us also, and we haven’t done such a great job. God’s vision is a land of peace where there is enough for all, equity for all, justice for all, food for all, no one having too much and no one having too little. How can we move our communities, our churches, our nations to be closer to God’s vision? Impossible you say? Remember what happened with the feeding of the multitudes in Matthew.
