Advent Musings


Stretched across time
Reading from the past
Living in the present
Dreaming of the future
Excitement
Anticipation
Hope
Advent


The season of Advent just caught me in its grasp
The waiting of it all
The anticipation
The hope
The fear mixed with excitement of the past becoming present, giving birth to the future
Prophets proclaimed it
He shall be Emmanuel!
God with us
And it was so
The past brought present and into the future


Today I am caught in a waiting game
Knowing I am here right now
Not knowing where I will be in the future
Anticipating reunion
Hoping that I will know how to listen and respond
When past becomes present and future is birthed.
