Lord, Liar or Lunatic?

When Jesus came to the region of Caesaria Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” (Matt 6:13-15 NKJV)

I found the following tucked inside the back cover of the January 2012 issue of Daily Bread. I don’t think it was intended as a homily, as it didn’t come with a prayer or scripture reading, so I have appended my own.

As part of the Church of Jesus Christ, you are part of us. In Drummond Hill everyone who comes to share worship is welcomed as a member of Christ's family; we are honoured to be your spiritual home away from home. We consider ourselves to be blessed by Christ because of your sharing.

On the last Lent Luncheon on Wednesday, March 31^st, everyone came wearing an Easter bonnet. it was so nice to see so many pretty ones. Creativeivty was wonderful.

We are the 10:30 crowd.

Once we were slaves to the fast moving time. The tide of busy-ness came in waves to squeeze out what little free time we enjoyed. Our lives were filled with tasks of caring for others. Now that children have grown up, future opens up again to live and enjoy. Time no longer controls us. Instead, we can savour and slow it down to serve our purpose. Approaching retirement or the state of already being in retirement offers us different perspectives on what life is and should be.
