Christ the King - The Collect

Christ the King - The Collect:

Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things in your well-beloved Son, the King of kings and Lord of lords: Mercifully grant that the peoples of the earth, divided and enslaved by sin, may be freed and brought together under his most gracious rule; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Repairing - Tikkun Olam:  The world is aching for restorative hope. Whether we’ve done things that are our own fault, or whether it's the enemy who has stolen from us, God is the Restorer. “…God, will restore everything you lost; he’ll have compassion on you; he’ll come back and pick up the pieces..”  Our Father has a plan, a  goal, for restoring this broken world. N. T. Wright wrote: “The point of Christianity is not… [just] to go to heaven when you die. [Rather it’s] putting the whole creation to rights…” So I take solace, that ultimately, God will repair all things. There is nothing that will not be set right - everything planned at creation; everything prophesied to Israel; everything promised to the Church, our promise, is  fulfilled by the Almighty and everlasting God, whose will it is to restore all things…#pkes
