For 14 November 2024, Thursday of week 32 in Ordinary Time, based on Luke 17:20-25
Once Jesus was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was coming, and he answered, ‘The kingdom of God is not coming with things that can be observed; nor will they say, “Look, here it is!” or “There it is!” For, in fact, the kingdom of God is among you.’
Then he said to the disciples, ‘The days are coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. They will say to you, “Look there!” or “Look here!” Do not go, do not set off in pursuit. For as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be in his day. But first he must endure much suffering and be rejected by this generation.

Great preaching, Elyse. We are all Kingdom carriers. We can’t forget that but we must remember that faith without action is dead.

Deep gratitude Elyse for your powerful reminder that God’s reign is within and among us… we have not been abandoned, but re-anointed by our times.

Thanks, Elyse, for your practical reminder to be Kingdom Carriers however/wherever we are. It’s already within us. May I be still enough to claim and share it.
