Always Advent

In some sense it always Advent, even now in Lent. We are pilgrims, ever leaning into the future. We are always waiting. Yet. Yet we are living now, in this precise moment. It is all we have. The past has slipped through our fingers, the future is for the moment unknowable. It can feel like we are merely marking time, or enduring the storms that rage. Yet. Yet we can live, not simply wrapped in our own thoughts, but awake to the needs that present themselves now, awake to each other, awake to God…
Grace and peace,
