waiting

“Waiting for the spark from heaven to fall.”

Matthew Arnold

What an incredible picture this quote paints. It is full of anticipation and watchfulness. It is as if the whole earth is pregnant with expectation and groaning to bring it to birth.

We have had the privilege of knowing how this ‘waiting’ came to be a reality; for Mary, for Joseph, for Israel, for all who believed. As we are moving into the shadow of Christmas, may you have a sense of anticipation in the waiting.

Grace and peace,
