God’s Love is in plain sight all around us, yet it seems so obscure. We may feel orphaned from homes where we once experienced spiritual vitality. Coercion and condemnation have left us on the streets looking for a better way. In John’s gospel, Jesus’ first words are, “What are you looking for?” and they’re followed by an invitation to “come and see.” We aren’t given certainty or a system to sell. We are invited to experience a common and awe-inspiring grace as we abide with Jesus. Where do people find transforming grace at Vox? What particular ways are we invited to embody Divine grace and invite others to experience this sustaining grace with us?
On this third week of our series, Vanessa Maleare reflects on what makes invitations to grow and companion one another meaningful and transformative.
Reflection Questions:
- Who has been a “friend to your heart”?
- What are you seeking/looking for?
- What do you need from your intimate connection with Jesus?
