Even the Mountains and Trees are Groaning while they Wait on Christmas Eve
We’re so close now.
I’m hoping,
Trusting,
Believing,
that everything is going to be alright,
that peace, Shalom, will rule the day,
that LOVE ultimately wins.
Prayers
WE NEED MORE NUKES!!!
“The United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to its senses regarding nukes”
Said the asinine tweet from the incoming president elect.
The shortest, or is it the longest, day of the year
There’s so much darkness in the world.
Sometimes I wonder what’s the point in trying to make it better.
It just keeps getting worse.
Corruption, Politics, Leadership, and Advent
Imagine a world where we automatically assumed that all politicians, leaders, preachers, teachers, cops, judges, social workers, and lawyers were doing their jobs with 100% integrity.
Assassinations, Hostages, and Terrorism in Advent
There is so much to long for during this Advent season.
We are still waiting.
Still longing.
Still hoping.
All you need is Love
In this last week of Advent, I long for love to dominate everything.
I want to love and be loved.
I want to be a friend to someone who is lonely.
I want to be an instrument of God’s love. God’s friendship.
Blessed are the Meek
Meek: ‘Having or showing a quiet and gentle nature; not wanting to fight or argue with other people.’
Still Waiting
Still waiting, hoping, trying, longing, praying for everything to be made right.
Moments of Joy
Those moments of joy in the midst of a broken world.
Moments of transcendence.
Moments when Heaven and Earth overlap.
I Choose Joy
With this week of Advent being ‘Joy’ week, and after yesterday’s ‘rantier than usual’ post, I thought I’d be more joyful today.
