‘God’s love is all-inclusive and we should be as well.’ ~Joanna Hollis

A few years ago, Pluto was removed from the list of planets. It held a unique status as the smallest of all the planets. It was also the furthest from the sun at 5.9 billion km or 3.7 billion miles. Pluto is so far from the sun that it takes 249 years for it to make its way around the outskirts of the solar system. As it is so far from the sun there is no life on Pluto, with everything frozen solid. Sometimes we’re a bit like Pluto as well. Our lives can at times seem removed, distant, dark and cold. We sometimes feel left out, on our own, excluded and out on the fringes. It is not a good place to be and it’s not a good place to remain. God is always calling us in from the fringes. We are always called into light, love, warmth, hope and life. Others may try and push us out but God always wants to pull us right back into a healthy and good place. Do you feel on the fringes and on the outside? Can you allow God and others to pull you right back in?
