“Making Room For Hope…”

The Lord be with you…let us pray… (prayer for the Spirit’s indwelling as bring God’s words of hope this morning…)

Please stand for the reading of the Gospel according to St. Luke, chapter 9, verses 57-62. Listen to words of caution from God to the people of God as we seek His will…


As Hope knocked on the door of Ms. L.’s house, she thought to herself “what am I doing here? I know this is all going to end up like before with me being even more confused than before. But I do like Ms. L. and she seems to be concerned for me…genuinely concerned. I must try. I have way too many questions right now and they are going to drive me crazy of I don’t try to get some answers.” As if she sensed Hope at the door, Ms. L. opened the door before Hope even had a chance to knock a second time. “Oh Hope, I am so glad you came. Come on in, I have someone I want you to meet,” Ms.L.as she grabbed Hopes hand and pulled her in before she could change her mind.

“Hope, I want you to meet Patience. She has had lots of her own questions about God and I think that you may v=be able to relate to her answers a little better than mine since I think you both have probably had the same kind of experiences in life. I will be right back. I have a batch of muffins to take out of the oven. Sit and get to know each other a little.” Ms. L. said…almost as if she was up to something.

“Hi, I’m Patience nice to meet you. I am sorry for my aunt. She seems to think that I can relate to the whole world since I have had worldly experiences that she never did. Did you know that she has never had any real issues in her life? She was brought up in the church so she has never really had any doubt about her beliefs. I envy her sometimes…” Patience brought up in the church said as she could see Hope was a little nervous being alone with her.

“Hi, I’m Hope. Nice to meet you. Your aunt used to take care of me when I was little. It is really nice to have her back in my life again. I didn’t know that she was brought up in the church and had a pretty untroubled life. She never told me she had a niece. I am glad you are here…I think” Hope nervously laughed. “I am too. I hope that I can help in some way. But there is one thing you need to remember through all of this. One of the main things you have to do is to let go of the past. In order to make more room for Jesus, I have found you need to let go of those things that have happened in your life before Jesus so that you can have hope and be happy in the future you now have with Him.” Patience advised Hope. “Well that sort of makes sense. You have to let go of the old for the new, right?” Hope asked, trying to make sure she understood what she was talking about. “That’s right but it is easier said than done. You will spend the rest of your life doing it because just because you have accepted Jesus…it doesn’t mean life is going to be easy…as a matter of fact it may get harder but you will always have Jesus to help you. It is all about letting go and letting God…so to speak.” “Oh boy…this is going to be hard” Hope said with a little apprehension. “It will be but life eternally with God is well worth the price…” “How are you two getting along” Ms. L. asked as she entered the room. “Just fine aunty. I think we are going to be awesome friends” Patience answered. “I think so too” Hope agreed. “Well good! Now help me eat these cookies or I am going to commit the sin of gluttony as I eat them all” Ms. L. laughed as the three believers sat together to have conversation and laughter with each other.

In what do you find hope? We live in a chaotic world full of hopelessness and despair, how can we have hope? As I have said, we need to cultivate hope in our lives...and have enough to share with a broken world. This doesn’t happen overnight, it is a process. When we begin to have a living hope in us it is as if a light is turned on in our lives, a bright light. But …how do we hold on to this hope we have?

Over the past few weeks, we have been farming…so to speak. To recap…we have plowed the fields and germinated seeds. They sprouted and we have planted them in the good and cultivated soil, that is sustained by God and His word…the seedlings hopefully have taken root and has gone deep down into the ground and watered by the Living Water. Remember, if the seedling…if hope is not planted, there is no grounding…no growth. It is shallow and when trials of life some scorching in it is dried up and withers…  The only way to withstand the pressures of life our hope has root itself in good soil where it receives water…Living Water.

We have tilled the soil so that the seeds of love and hope could begin to grow and sprout new hope within us and within those who Go calls us to plant within. There are times that we may even want to move on because of a painful…fill in the blank. But…God says, not just yet…you need to stay put where you are. So, we bloom where we are…the fruits are shared within our community of the church and out into the larger community of the world. Hope becomes evident in our lives and the lives of others… (If it isn’t evident…is there really any hope to be found?)

We may become weary at times…you can’t just keep putting out and not run out. We become tired, discouraged, exhausted, and disappointed. We need to revive ourselves with the word of God…go to the well that will give us rest and rejuvenate us to continue. We also are to help others revive as well… And we remember all those victories we have had in and through Jesus…that keeps us going forward and hold on to the hope within us. We are living in a building site as we build hope within ourselves and within others. We are always building until that glorious day that we are called home…

Now all of the sudden we have this stand still. It as if we have no room for hope in our lives. We have all this stuff going on that we are unable to recieve any more hope. Why do you think this happens to some people who are trying to live in the Living Hope? Give time to answer. Sometimes, we have to make room for hope in our lives. Sometimes we have to get rid of in order to receive.

The “would be followers” in the scripture this morning said they wanted to follow Jesus. And then they put the “but” in the condition. The wanted to take care of the worldly first then come and do the eternal…to be Christ followers. Jesus told them that you need to let go of the world…to make room for the kingdom in their lives in order to follow Him.

There are times that we need to let go of the worldly…to let go of the past…in order to usher in the present and the future in our lives. In order to have the hope in our lives we need to make room by letting go of past…fill in the blank… to make room for hope in the present and for our future… This is not an easy task at all. Sometimes we don’t even realize what we are doing to ourselves.

2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has passed away, the new is here.”  The old is gone and the new creation has begun. No longer does your past define you in Christ. You are defined as a child of God and being such, you have a new name and a new life. You become a Christ Follower… I choose the name of “Christ Follower” rather than Christian. Only because the word Christian, the title of Christian, has become almost a four-letter word to a lot of people these days. They see Christians not being very Christ like and put all who believe under that “umbrella” name. I find myself defining myself not as a Christian but one who follows Christ.
Galatians 2:20, Paul states that”
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” 
Our old self was buried in the Cross of Jesus. We now live for Christ and not for the world and all its messed up, fleshly desires…or at least we try to. But we are imperfect and we are Works In Progress…and being such we will fail but thank God for His marvelous grace, we are given a chance to get up and try, try again. It’s all about faith in Jesus and Faith in the promises we are given. That is what gives us hope…that is what gets us out of bed each morning to try again…God’s mercies are new each morning …our hope is reborn with each day dawning…

Is there room in you for the Hope God wants to give you or is there no room at the inn.  Are you living in the past or are you looking forward to the future… Oh by the way, others are trying to find their way to hope, and in as such…we who are followers of Christ need to help them get past the past by not making them live in their past mistakes they have made…past bad decisions and lifestyles they chose? We have all made mistakes and have fallen short of the grace of God. We are all works in progress. We are all imperfect with a piece of the perfect…the Divine…living in us. Why don’t we look for that Divine in others and help them move forward in faith instead of causing them to stay stagnant in sin.
Remember the words of Paul in Philippians 3:13-4-14 as we move forward in hope and helping others find that same hope that won’t disappoint us…
“Brothers and sisters, I do not consider that I have made it my own yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

 Beloved remember that you and I are a construction site, forever being built up in Christ Jesus. We are works in progress and in being such, we have room for improvement and growth…expansion...maybe even a whole renovation project. But we need to make room for this renewing hope. If not, we will have a “no vacancy” sign upon our hearts. But know this…there is hope, to be found by you and me. Where there is hope…there is possibilities…

Amen!
