You Are Clear

You are clear: We must love our neighbor as ourselves.
Move us to find ways to manifest your love even to those it is hard to help.

You are clear: We must rest from our labors and honor you every week.
Instead of more is better, move us to trust in your economy of abundance.

You have told us what is good and what you require:
Move our hearts and minds to do justice, embrace faithful love, and walk humbly with you. Amen.

Tim is a runner, a hiker, a devoted husband, a father of two adult children, and their spouses, and a grandfather of four perfect children. A former early childhood educator, Tim is an ordained minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). He has served as pastor of both Disciples and United Church of Christ congregations. As we enter what we hope is the final phase of the pandemic, Tim is beginning a journey of rediscovering himself and discerning next steps. He writes from his home in Albany, Oregon and wherever the Spirit lures him.
