“Here am I; send me.” (Isaiah 6:8)
When God asks the impossible, and failure seems as certain as our calling to the task before us,
a vision of something greater guides us,
a magic calls to us.
A sermon offered on New Year’s Day 2017, at First Presbyterian Church-Woodruff.
Gratitude, and more gratitude, to the genius of Davelyn Hill.

From the sermon:
“We stand in awe and wonder.
“In the beauty of this earth,
in the love of this congregation,
in the power of our vocation,
in the glory of Advent and Christmas,
in the magic of friends and saints who sit beside us,
and in the gifts they bring us
beyond anything we or they could design–
“in all these things we are given
a vision of the majesty of God
who rules with justice and mercy
for all people
above any earthly rule or circumstance.”
