PASTOR’S NOTES

THE HARD ROAD OF DISCIPLINE even death. However, all of these are always in service of obtain- ing our ultimate goal.

Isaiah 66:18-21 Life teaches us some hard lessons and can easily disappoint. Hebrews 12:5-7, 11-13 But God’s ever-present love is always available to transform Luke 13:22-30 even the most self-focused of hearts, and His holiness touches all of His children. It is our task, then, to ensure that everything possible is done to preserve and respect the sacredness of life Abraham Lincoln is said to have remarked that “discipline is and the dignity of every human being. choosing between what you want now and what you want most.” What is it that you desire most? This is a powerful question that God’s vision has a great deal to say about the immigrant, the must be asked and answered if we want to avoid a haphazard, homeless, our economic system, power, wealth, distribution of disjointed, and chaotic life.

But at the end of it all, what is it that Rev. Mark Suslenko you really desire? PRAYER St. Augustine tells us that our hearts are restless until they rest Loving God, in God. If we really believe that we are lovingly and intentionally I can easily get confused fashioned and created by a God who wills us into being — and between what I think I need and what I truly desire. that we are destined to live eternally with that same God in You have placed your glorious presence within me. heaven — then these are wise words indeed.

The gift of contemplation keeps God in clear focus and our hearts set on our true desire: union with Him.

It will not be easy at first. Who among us really likes discipline? But we all know that the maturity process always involves reluc- tance, pain, stretching, and honesty. We are constantly learning new lessons about life, God, ourselves, others, and our world, and we must vigilantly be willing to leave one way of doing things in pursuit of another of greater value. Knowing that our ultimate desire is union with God, we can then go about the task of true discipleship and begin living the vision Jesus taught. It is a vision that involves great self-denial, suffering, and possibly
