I John 3:2-3   My dear friends, we are now God's children, 
 but it is not yet clear what we shall become. 
 But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, 
 because we shall see him as he really is. 
 Everyone who has this hope in Christ keeps himself pure, 
 just as Christ is pure.

Beyond Ordinary

In the routine of daily life, we often go through the motions, checking off lists, following calendar demands, and looking ahead just enough to move forward to the next task. We might even define what we do as ordinary.
Even if going to church on Sunday fits into your weekly plan, what do you do Monday through Saturday to connect with the Lord, to see Him in your daily life?
Each of us is uniquely designed by God. Look for Him, seek Him, speak to Him everyday. His plan is extraordinary and in order to serve Him, we must actively participate in knowing Him.
In response to this week's Gospel lesson from Luke 24:13-35, the ELCA suggests this prayer:
O God, your Son makes himself known to all his disciples in the breaking of bread. Open the eyes of our faith, that we may see him in his redeeming work, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
In the ordinary of everyday living, you will find Jesus. Seek. Find. Do extraordinary things with Him and for Him.
