Simplicity

I attended a worship service on Saturday evening which involved candles and singing. Simple. Candles and music. What was amazing is that God can take these simple elements -- candles and music -- and turn it into a demonstration of his love and grace, active in the world.

God can take pita bread and grape juice, and transform it into a meal shared by all the saints -- communion with God himself.

God can take my humble offering of whatever little talent I have and turn it into evidence of his presence among us.

God can take random thoughts and strange questions and turn it into a Sunday school lesson.

God can me or you, and transform us into a child of God, welcome in his presence.

Amazing, isn't it? Unbelievable.
