Running Again

We tend to worship God on Sundays, but spend the rest of our week running from one obligation to the next, hobbling back in the next week exhausted and in desperate need of refreshment. God didn't intend for our faith to be this way. The story of Elijah's showdown with the prophets of Ba'al on Mt. Carmel illustrates the real danger: when aspects of our lives become idols, they drain away our life, distract us from God and hurt those around us. We must learn to let God order our lives so that we can find the life God promises!

Amos pictures God as a lion, roaring God’s judgment from Mt. Zion. We don’t like to think of God as a judge. But the biblical picture of God as judge is founded in God’s love as our Father in Heaven. We can hear God’s judgment as words as a firm love calling us to be whole.
