A Stormy Day

...often the accusation against God is that he doesn’t care – usually on the back of the fact that he hasn’t given us what we want be it health or wealth or whatever. Again as we think of those original readers, they may well have been wondering why doesn’t Jesus just deal with this Roman emperor? Where is God for those who are in prison? When things are bad and God doesn’t answer our prayers the way we want the question comes Jesus don’t you care?”
But we see through the whole of the gospel just how much God does care for us and how he has shown that in Jesus. Therefore we can trust him. We can take hold of his hand as we face the problems and issues of tomorrow and we can know that because he is God he is in control. Who is he? He is Jesus who is God and man and who as God has power and authority over the whole of creation and the whole of our lives. As such he asks us why are you afraid, not in condemnation but in love to encourage us to trust him with the things that worry us. Because of who he is and what he has done we cannot say don’t you care because it is so obvious that God does care.

Jesus still calls people today. He calls those who are not yet followers to come and follow him. Why should we do that? Because of what we hear from Jesus telling us of his love for us, what we hear about Jesus, who he is, his nature as God and because of what he has done, not just the great miracles but his death on the cross. If you are here today and have not accepted that call or if you are listening to this on download and are yet to start following Jesus let me encourage you to hear his call today and respond with a yes. But then many of us have been following for sometime and it may be that Jesus is saying to us I want you to do something for me. It wasn’t long ago that Gordon heard the call to be ordained. That may not be the way for us but there may be some area of service either here in Christ Church or elsewhere that God has for us. Peter was in a sense the first in a long line of Christians down the ages who have heard Jesus calling them to follow and calling them to service. Through the words of Jesus and his actions they have taken seriously that call and countless thousands have responded some like CT Studd giving up much to take the gospel to a very different culture others to mission and ministry in the place where they work. The response often does mean sacrifices have to be made but the cause of the kingdom of God and the gospel makes those sacrifices worthwhile.
