The Upper Room 1st February 2022 Daily Devotional | Message
I wrote today’s devotion on the way to pray with a parishioner who was facing surgery. Though the fog was thick, I got there safely and all was well with both my parishioner and me. I also wrote this devotion just two weeks after the release of the “Protocol of Reconciliation and Grace through Separation” in The United Methodist Church.
Now two years later, we find ourselves in another challenging situation with the omicron variant spreading, hospitals full, and national divisions still dominating much of our news. Everyone is tired of being scared, following protocols, and continually having to change course because of factors we cannot control. In many ways it feels like we are in a fog.
The Good News, however, is that Christ’s light is still with us and still guides. We just celebrated the Epiphany of our Lord. We find ourselves celebrating the season of light. As we live into 2022, we are invited to keep our eyes and hearts fixed upon the one who illumines our path — to turn from distractions and look to the One who makes a way when there seems to be none.
One of the spiritual practices I’ve picked up during the past two years is to wake up in the morning and say to God, “Open my eyes and heart that I might see you, then give me the courage to follow where you lead.” More often than not, that leads me to see what I might have been blind to and share love in places and to people I otherwise might have missed. Jesus’ light is with us. Pray to see it, then follow where Christ leads. We might just catch a glimpse of the kingdom of God. We might just realize that God has privileged all of us to serve alongside the Light of the world.
