March 26, 2017: Fourth Sunday of Lent/Laetare Sunday

We rejoice on this Sunday marking the midpoint of Lent that God has chosen us to be in a relationship with Him, as He shepherds us into the ways of Eternal Life.  He calls us out of the darkness of sin, and into His marvelous Light, enlightening us that we may see Him wherever He is found, and see all as He sees.  He sees into our hearts, and sends His spirit upon us that we may arise to embrace the call He places upon us.

We embrace the Light, and are sent to boldly proclaim our God, because in His light, we embrace new life, turning from our own ideas to what God offers for us as we see all in His glorious Light.  Since we are no longer in darkness, we embrace the new ways of living that are befitting God's Light and reflect His glory, abiding in His covenant forever.
