This Sunday at Peace

Scripture: Matthew 25:1-13

a note from Holly

Our parable this Sunday (recorded only in Matthew’s gospel) reads like a harsh word of judgment—separating the five wise virgins from the five foolish ones. 

At first read, it’s difficult and dark.

At second read, it’s an invitation to a feast.

It’s hard to know what we will feel like on Wednesday morning--after the election.

I’m hoping for a feast where candidates of integrity, wisdom and compassion come out on top.

However it goes, this I know: the work of repairing God’s creation will go on,…

Thankful, as ever, for your wise example.

Holly
