A Place is Prepared for You

Christian Commitment
in Today's World

John 14:1-4 (the Message)
The Road
 1-4 "Don't let this throw you. You trust God, don't you? Trust me. There is plenty of room for you in my Father's home. If that weren't so, would I have told you that I'm on my way to get a room ready for you? And if I'm on my way to get your room ready, I'll come back and get you so you can live where I live. And you already know the road I'm taking."

For Reflection
I'm confident that the end of life as we know it is not the end of life.  Hope is the major argument in my rhetoric of belief.  Trust sustains hope and hope sustains trust.  Circular you say. Yes!  I hope in the mystery of life where logic cannot lead to all the answers.  To what extent can you suspend literalism for a more poetic, metaphoric, existence?

Pray that you embrace the mystery of God.  Pray to trust in the face of the unknown.  Pray to act on trust and hope.
