For Sunday
The Scripture for Sunday is II Corinthians 6: 1-13. It's an unusual part of Paul's letter - read it and tell me, what does it mean to you?
Here it is in The Message:
Companions as we are in this work with you, we beg you, please don't squander one bit of this marvelous life God has given us. God reminds us,
I heard your call in the nick of time;
The day you needed me, I was there to help.
Well, now is the right time to listen, the day to be helped. Don't put it off; don't frustrate God's work by showing up late, throwing a question mark over everything we're doing. Our work as God's servants gets validated - or not - in the details. People are watching us as we stay at our post, alertly, unswervingly . . .
See you Sunday!
