“The Keys of the Kingdom”
O God, lead us to acknowledge that our faith in you and our place in your kingdom give us great responsibilities, responsibilities that have to do with the lives, with the faith, and with the pilgrimages of other people.
Give us the discipline to take our responsibilities seriously and the faith to carry them out with great trust that you will ultimately work out the ultimate implications of what we decide and do.
Amen.
“’I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.’ Then he sternly ordered the disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.” (Matthew 16:19-20)
