THE GOSPEL OF LUKE

We are continuing on our journey through Luke. Here, we find that Jesus begins to call his disciples forward into action - No longer just spectators of The Way, but partners with Jesus in calling others into Fullness of Life.

 

What Jesus invited his disciples to then, He invites us to now. We watch what He does. We witness His way. We begin to hear His words of belief and faith spoken over us. He reminds us that we have been given the Spirit. We recall that all authority belongs to Him. Then, often to our amazement, we find ourselves in moments knowing that Jesus is asking us to partner with him in extending His grace, love, and mercy to those around us. No longer just spectators of The Way, but partners with Jesus in calling others into Fullness of Life.  

 

As we move through Luke 8 and 9 over the next few weeks, our prayer is that each one of us will see Jesus at work, hear his invitation to join Him in His way, and respond with hearts of joyful surrender.
