At Church…
However you navigated to here…
Leave your camels outside in the adjacent camel-park.
Come inside…
Place your baggage near the font, a place of new life and beginnings.
Hear and learn… of God’s free, radical grace.
Come and worship the Christ..
At the altar…
Once a child – the Light of the World, visited by Magi…
Then an adult – the Way the Truth and the Life.
In grace, resurrection is where we meet him, and beyond…
It is bread and wine, yet…
We are transformed!
And now…
Go out into the world.
Take up your baggage anew, with changed priorities and hope…
Rejoin your camel, or car or shoes…
Reset, and follow a new star on a different route…
A new journey.
Into new life.
Amen.
