EpiscoGrrlThe #Gospel for the 19th Sunday after Pentecost (Proper 24) is Luke 18: 1-8 which is the story of the widow & the unjust judge.
For me, what stands out in these verses is that not everyone receives justice, certainly not immediately. The widow keeps asking & asking for justice until it is given to her, even by one who does not fear #God. This is often held up as a lesson in #perseverance for #Jesus tells us that, if we have faith in Him, God will grant us justice much quicker than the judge did. Yet these verses end with the question: “when the Son of Man comes, will He find #faith upon the earth?” The implication being humanity will not persist in faith long enough to see justice. This means that even the most faithful among us will not receive justice during their lifetime. How do we live with that? Do we accept that our persistence, our faith, is potentially for naught or do we continue to pray in hopes that one day we will be the widow & there will be faith on earth? #DPB
The #Gospel reading for 14 October 2025 is Matthew 10:16-23. The parable of the sheep among wolves is familiar to most #Christians as inspiration for both perseverance & spreading the Good News of #Jesus our great Redeemer. I’ve heard this passage cited as proof that unpopular people (or people who espouse viewpoints that others disagree with) are on God’s side & doing the work/will of the Divine. Perhaps they are. At least, they may be right up to the point where they meet violence, persecution, anger, & hate in kind.
Once they, or we, start hating & hurting others, we can all be pretty sure we are no longer doing God’s work. Nowhere in this verse are we told to meet violence, be it verbal, legal, or physical, with violence. Quite the opposite, in fact. We are told not to worry about what we should say (v. 19) & “if they persecute you in one village, leave there & go to the next.” (v. 23) #DPB #Green #Episcopal #MorningPrayer #Peace
The #EpiscopalChurch remembers Philip, disciple, evangelist, & deacon on 11 October. So today’s #Gospel reading is Luke 24:13-27 (rather than Matthew). In these passages, the disciples tell a fellow traveler about what has happened to #Jesus from his arrest through crucifixion & the discovery of the empty tomb. They don’t recognize who they are speaking with, even when he describes how Scripture pointed to everything that had occurred.
For me today’s message is that we don’t always realize when God is speaking to us. The Divine rarely shows up wearing a name tag or a t-shirt saying “God” Just because we do not recognize the Divine, doesn’t mean that they are not present & speaking/teaching us. This passage reminds us that the Divine can be anywhere, speaking through anyone. Our challenge is to hear God whenever & wherever God speaks.
How will you hear God today?
