Father Nissen's sermon, October 21

The text for today is Luke 18: 1 -8.

This the teaching of the widow and the unjust judge. She had to keep asking this legal official for help, probably to obtain an inheritance that was left for her by her deceased husband. She hit a brick wall. All of us hit brick walls, be they lack of money, education, emotional problems, depression, grief, loss, and so on. We sense that we are weak.

This can be a good thing. On our own we become isolated with little positive perspective. When we call on God we are always directed back to walk with others. The word "ego" can be an acronym for "Edging God Out."

Our weakness can be a blessing. Let us walk and share with others, especially with members of our beloved Episcopal church.
