Sunday Reflection: God of all

 



Yesterday I glanced at a picture of my dad, and it made me really miss him. In those moments, I wonder about what his form is now, if that makes sense. Luke 20: 38 says this (after the Saduccees try to trick Jesus with a hypothetical in which a woman marries seven brothers): "Now he is God not of the dead, but of the living, for to him all of them are alive."

There is a lot going on there, and the context of it is "the resurrection." Still, that last line makes sense to me in a profound way. God's knowledge and presence spans time and space-- and to either side of death. In that way, my dad and I still stand together in our relationship to God; we still share that as we did. And there is solace in that.
