At the end of time, sins of omission will be judged as equally as sins of commission. ⁣
⁣
Living your own life, minding your own business, finding your inner you, loving you, pampering you and being a lounge room legend with only a tiny vision for the welfare of others, turns what was always meant to be a life giving river into a swamp. ⁣
⁣
To omit all of that goodness and grace that we could have given to our worlds is to miss the mark as much as our wilful stubbornness misses the mark.⁣
⁣
⁣
We receive from Christ forgiveness for both our lack of being good in our world AND our lack of bringing good to our world. ⁣

Lord, help us make this December the month of rivers and 2019 the Year of the River.
