General Assembly: Day 3

Surely the Kingdom of God must look a little like, what we experienced tonight, in worship.

A table piled high with loaf after loaf of bread.
Lights shining.
Guitars and drums and violins making joyful noise.
The "least of these," preaching a prophetic word.

The littlest ones, playing in the center of it all.
Adults water-coloring with children who were not their own.
Puppets telling the story.
Scripture being read in five - FIVE - different languages.
And songs being sung by heart.

Bread being consumed in the soul.
Holding hands.
Wiping tears.
Loving God.
Living faith.

THIS is Kingdom.


"And God was in their midst."

Thanks be to God...
