Always 'Yes.' Scripture, reflection and praise.

1 Corinthians 1:18-22

As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been “Yes and No.” For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we proclaimed among you, Silvanus and Timothy and I, was not “Yes and No”; but in him it is always “Yes.” For in him every one of God’s promises is a “Yes.” For this reason it is through him that we say the “Amen,” to the glory of God.  But it is God who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us, by putting his seal on us and giving us his Spirit in our hearts as a first installment.

Reflection.  Very short reflection today...Jesus is always 'yes!'  In Jesus, all of God's promises are a 'yes!'  Jesus is the archetypal 'Yes man.' Dwell with delight that in Jesus, God says 'Yes' to the world. 

Praise. Lord God, we give you all our praise that you have said 'yes' in Jesus to us. Hallelujah. Amen. Hallelujah. Amen.
