A healthy plant has strong roots and strong shoots. The same is true of a healthy child of God.
Thoughts for the Week: RESURRECTION EYES: ROOTS AND SHOOTS from - Maccabees
2 Maccabees 7:14
[I] cannot but choose to die at the hands of evil men AND to CHERISH THE HOPE THAT GOD GIVES OF BEING RAISED AGAIN BY HIM. BUT FOR YOU THERE WILL BE NO RESURRECTION TO LIFE!”
2 Maccabees 7:22 - 7:23
“I do not know how you came to be in my womb; it was not I who gave you breath and life, nor was it I who arranged the elements you are made of.
Therefore, since it is the Creator of the universe who shaped the beginning of humankind and brought about the origin of everything, HE [THE LORD], IN HIS MERCY, WILL GIVE YOU BACK BOTH BREATH AND LIFE, BECAUSE YOU NOW DISREGARD YOURSELVES FOR THE SAKE OF HIS LAW.”

This sermon could just as easily be titled YHWH I AM EGO EIMI. Today we are going to take a journey to the Land of Holiness. When we get there, we will still be here.. Yes, that is a paradox. No, we are not going to leave this sanctuary. This is a journey of the heart, of the soul. Once we know where holiness lives, it will come alive in us.
