“In the beginning…”
We need poets, preachers, counselors, worshipers,
intercessors to remind us of God’s Word that has taken root in us. We need to go back to the Word, “In the
beginning.” The beginning place that has
power to move us forward. The beginning,
a place of creative tension that gives birth to meaning and purpose.
The place where we began, and have since wandered off for a
little while, but the comfort of God-His prophets, teachers, healers and
seekers is bringing us back to that place; back home.
Henri Nouwen said, “We will always be leaving and coming home. Life is filled with leaving and returning.”
When we are home we are fed, nourished and strengthened to
go out into the World, but we will always need to return home, to remember, to
take our unfinished business to the Cross; these places where we uprooted and
left. Those places still remain within
us and are waiting for us to return and integrate them so that we can go
out into the World with more Power, Joy and Freedom.
