Naaman finally let his need drive him to give up on all human show and human plans; then he was healed. 2 Kings 5:1-14
God has turned my tears in the night into joy in the morning, my mourning into dancing, my sadness wrap into gladness garb. Psalm 30
Context of "Reap what you sow" is not "What goes around comes around" or even "Pay it forward" ideas, but rather Teach to avoid DIY. Galatians 6:1-16
Demonstrable domination over all evil and enemies brings not the real joy, but rather being remembered in heaven. Luke 10:1-20
Perhaps a theme of the Lectionary readings for this week could be found in the idea of giving up on the showy, fantastic, human, DIY plans and focusing on the quieter values. |
