so much pain in this world tonight ..
people sick
people abused
people poor, hungry, cold
people persecuted
people under the horror of war
people enslaved .. in their bodies, in
their minds
.. .
and then there's advent
and then there's the revelation
and then there's somebody that took all
that pain, all that sorrow, all the brokenness in the world, and
internalized it, became that and overcame it
because of that man we have a confident
hope
of new birth
of new life
of new creation
and of oneness with God, in person
blessed be the God that delivers us all
from slavery
and makes us children
blessed be those that take that hope
and make it apparent now, here, today, in this life
another kind of advent ..
peace
Accepting hope today~
