October 12, 2008: Take Me Back to the Start – Michael Hidalgo

It is so interesting to note that if we took the first part of the letter to Ephesus we would think so highly of them. They look so good, and do so many things well. Yet they have forsaken their first love. In this letter God calls them back to where they started. A compassionate God, not an angry God, says to his Church ‘return to me my love’. Jesus always stands as one who invites his people back - repentance is a return to love, wholeness, and balance.
