The words “breath,” “wind,” and “spirit” are used interchangeably to remind us that God is always coming to us. Become aware of your breath. Notice how breathing more deeply calms you. Notice how long you can hold your breath to remember how essential it is for your life. The Living God, or the God of Life, seeks to come to dwell within us and to give new life to us and through us.
Advent calls us to pay attention and to anticipate what “the God who comes to us” wants to do within us and through us. So, we wait in hope of what yet may be. This process of waiting in hope, is active, not passive.
Join us this Sunday as we continue to awaken to the new life full of hope, peace, joy, and love that God is calling each one of us, by name, into.
What are you waiting for?
Blessings, Pastor Laurie
