ruminating on the next year
epiphany was on wednesday.
it actually marks the end of the christmas season for the church calendar.
here was one of the prayers from church this past week:
o god, in the beginning you spoke,
and creation was born, the object of your loving care.
in the fullness of time you spoke,
and the word became flesh, jesus, your gift of love.
we wonder at the miracle of creation;
we stand in awe before the beauty of the incarnation.
forgive us earthbound people, feeble in faith,
empty of hope, lacking in love.
this year let the miracle and mystery of christmas happen for us again.
we wait upon you with ready heart, o god,
through jesus christ, our lord, amen.
what do i want god to do this year?
what do i hope for?
what promises of god's am i waiting for him to accomplish?
what do i want him to move in me?
how do i want him to move me forward?
here we go twenty-ten!
