Set up camp

"Good works flow from people who have finally found that God's love really heals."
Fr. Ronald Patrick Raab, "Give Us This Day"
 
We really begin to walk with God when our spiritual lives and our secular lives come to an intersection.  Where they meet is where our faith joins with what we actually do in our lives. Do our actions and the way we treat other people reflect our spirituality? They should!  The minute we take up the cross and follow Jesus, our lives look different.  But how?  I think Fr. Raab is right on here.  When we experience the healing love of Jesus there is no way we can keep that to ourselves.  It is naturally out-flowing to others.  God's love, by nature, is a shared love.  When we experience it, we know it must come to fruition by sharing it with others.  Let's spend some time this weekend thinking and praying about the intersection in our lives where our faith meets our works.  That is where we set up camp with Jesus.  Love, heidi
