Pastor's Corner

Ezekiel 34:11-12     For thus says the Lord God: I myself will search for my sheep, and will seek them out. As shepherds seek out their flocks when they are among their scattered sheep, so I will seek out my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places to which they have been scattered on a day of clouds and thick darkness.

Thank you, God. On my running shoes I wear a little velcro tag that says my name and has 2 emergency contact numbers, just in case something happens to me and I can’t speak for myself. When I put on my shoes it is a humbling reminder of that possibility. I value this little velcro tag so much because if I am lost, confused, injured; I will be known and I will be safely in touch with my loved ones. I imagine having this little tag emblazoned on the top of my head, where I was sealed with the sign of the cross, and claimed as God’s beloved daughter. Thank you, God. I trust in this "little" covenant of love so much that rests upon me. If and when I am lost, confused, or injured, God will find me and will keep me safe in that sweet embrace of grace.

Peace on your head,
Pastor Rachel
