We might complain from time to time that God does not seem to be doing much. It does depend on where you are looking and what you might be expecting. God is always moving and working, but does so, most of the time, in human beings. This week, we take a closer look at Moses' way of living, "Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven."

"Our Father, who art in heaven,Hallowed be thy Name."Here is a prayer we often pray without always realizing what we are asking for or who we are praying to. Our God is one of relationships, like a family. Our prayer, like that of Moses, is for God to walk with us and be our guide.

Sometimes the words "just" and "fair" do not go together. In Jesus' parable about a vineyard owner, this display of justice is by no means fair, but it does draw our focus toward a compassionate God. This God is always looking for new ways to give, share, and bless.

The most important work we often do is the work closest to us. How are we caring for those nearest to us? The news of the day will practically force us to work on the things we cannot possibly change alone. The issues are too big. Jesus invites his followers to small relationships which can make a big difference. We are called to give and receive peace everywhere we go, especially when it is close to home.

The day of Pentecost is a day of "power to the people." Before the coming of the Holy Spirit on the church, the followers of Jesus were waiting and hiding in the city. As Jesus promised, the Spirit would come and give them the power to be His witnesses. That same power and purpose are ours today.

Caring for creation requires us to see the world and God's vision for it with clarity. A future is coming that is free of death and evil. If this vision captivates us enough, we will live lives that faithful point to it.
