I still love the Church because, at the end of the day, I know that it can be a healing source of love and inspiration. But in order to do that, we must be like Peter, willing to learn and grow, and follow the Spirit’s leading, even out of our comfort zones.

“Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God, and the one who loves is born of God and fully experiences God.” – 1 John 4:7

“…he had compassion for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd...”

Mark 6:34

When you chose to let go of worrying about things and start caring for people, you will find the purpose and meaning you seek in your life.

Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. – Matthew 5:16

The Gerasene man found wholeness at the feet of Jesus. We too can find healing and wholeness at the feet of Jesus. At times each of us is broken in mind, body, or spirit. Jesus offers healing and shalom wholeness for the brokenness in our lives. Thanks be to God for the healing love of Jesus.
