“The season of Advent means there is something on the horizon the likes of which we have never seen before ... What is possible is to not see it, to miss it, to turn just as it brushes past you. And you begin to grasp what it was you missed, like Moses in the cleft of the rock, watching God’s [back] fade in the distance. So stay. Sit. Linger. Tarry. Ponder. Wait. Behold. Wonder.

Something is on the horizon.” MeanEnoughRunningPastTurnsWaitingWonderWorryRocksMissingSeasonsDistanceLikesPushingHorizonFadesBrushesMosesPonderingRushingAdvent Author:Jan L. Richardson
