As another serious weather event impacts our friends and family along the Florida coast, there are some first principles of which we need reminded:

1. Weather is not punishment from God.  

2. God is eternally FOR His children and does not need strong-armed into acting on their behalf. 

3. Prayer is used by God to change us…not the other way around. 

4. We pray to/with God.  We command to the storm. 

5. As we inhabit prayer, allowing the heart of Father, Son, and Spirit for all people to flow out of our hearts, minds, and mouths, we are experiencing our common-union with Him and all that He has created.  

6. In praying for those in harm’s way, we are not begging God to act, but resting in the eternal changlessnes of His goodness, benevolence, compassion, and mercy.  

7. Prayer is not manipulation, but participation.

Amidst some seriously steep competition, Bishop Malcolm Smith remains the best revelatory teacher walking the earth today. He teaches in the trenches of the uncomfortable, that grey area of risk that challenges us to see the ancient with new eyes. So excited for this!
