Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good.

Luke 15:20“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him …

            I read an article in Time magazine several years ago that seemed to be promoting the sport of bowling as a panacea to the loneliness experienced by young urban types these days. The bar scene having outlived its value long ago, new alternatives are always being sought for lonely people to find fulfillment and companionship. What this implies for the Christian community should be blindingly obvious.

            There is a curious sort of delegation of responsibility between Jesus and his disciples. We follow Him, we obey His commands, but before God we seek no credit for ourselves, and all is done to the glory of Jesus our Christ. In that delegation we see with his kind of vision the world around us. We see the evil, we see the good, and if we are attuned to His will, and blessed with understanding, we are given to be the ones who stand in the place of the loving Father welcoming the lost ones home.

            This, I admit, is a view of only one facet of our discipleship and devotion. However, as Paul has said so well, “I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.” (1 Corinthians 9:22) But in this instance I firmly believe that all are called to be witnesses, by word, and by example of love to the grace and love of God our Father. Are your eyes open?
