The new year is underway. What have you declared?Any new commitments? Have you asserted or announced anything about how 2017 will be different? This Sunday the sermon will focus on a passage from the Gospel of Luke in which Jesus is calling for a declaration and a new commitment, a declaration of dependence.What we depend on forms the foundation upon which our day-to-day experience is built. No matter what circumstances we face, what we choose to depend on shapes how we experience them.Over the next weeks we will complete our study of the Gospel of Luke. During Epiphany we will walk with Jesus on his final journey to Jerusalem through to Luke 19. We will hear his call to declare our utter dependence on him and listen to several of Jesus’ evocative stories revealing God as the one who lovingly seeks to find and care for the lost. Then during Lent we will focus on the last week of Jesus’ life beginning in Luke 19 and culminating with the celebration of his resurrection at Easter.In preparation for this Sunday read, pray, and meditate on Luke 12:22-34. Ask yourself how declaring dependence on Jesus in this way might change your life. Imagine. Imagine life in full dependence on Jesus free from anxiety. This is what Jesus is offering. Are we ready to declare dependence?Pastor David
