Each thing God brings into existence is individually good, but taken as a whole, it is VERY good. Think of Minnesota-speak: “I’m fine…” “I could be better.” On our own we are indeed “fine.” But together, as a creation that inhales and exhales as one, we are certainly “better.” Scripture References: Genesis 1:1-31 Before we are invited, we are already included. Accepting God’s invitation means being deliberate about cultivating our relationship with God, with each other, and with all of God’s good creation. But this is not a “me and God/Jesus/the Spirit” thing, as our focus on individualism has led us into the loneliness of the quietly desperate lives (or, these days, loudly aggressive lives) about which Thoreau wrote. God invites us into community, community that is not about winning and losing, but loving and sharing.
