The message today is based on Psalm 24.
This time of year we remember the saints--and the assurance that all of us can become saints.
In this psalm, King David reflects on his worship of God, the creator of heaven and earth. In his view, saints are those who have clean hands and pure hearts. In other words, saints are good on the inside and the outside. We are good on the inside only through God's forgiveness and the help God gives us. And being good on the inside makes it possible for us to do good on the outside.
We go to Holy Communion to heal our hurts, angers, resentments. This is urgent for the preservation of our planet, country, church, and parish. And if we relate creatively with one another, our planet and parishes may be places of healing and wellness for everyone.
Let us all rejoice in the communion of the saints!
