Reflection for the Week- December 30th
Happy New Year. In the year to come let’s remember this. When love has no basis or personal referent outside of ourselves—notably the Infinite One who is love—we are left to make it up as we go along. And as we attempt this, there will be serious consequences. Love, when not anchored in and referring to the personal God, has limited significance and meaning. Love is not whatever we make it to be. Idealism and utopias will be unsustainable, and a journey for the sake of the journey is a dead end – we need a destination and the loving God provides that for us in Christ
