Passion: A New Day


The point is that if God's new creation has already begun, those of us who have been wakened up in the middle of the night are put to work t make bits of new creation happen within the world as it is. And that is why we need to leave behind, on the cross, all the bits and pieces of old creation that have made us sad, that have depressed us and our communities, and start to pray for vision and wisdom to know where God can and will make new creation happen in our lives, in our hearts, in our homes and not least in our communities... (New creation) is going to have to be rooted in prayer and in celebration of the lordship of Jesus; that's the only way to do it properly... What matters is more prayer and more parties.
– N.T. Wright, Christians at the Cross

May you be wakened to Christ in prayer and parties.
