Our Gift

The advent season ends, and we move into the celebration of Christmas … a celebration that abruptly ends for many on December 26, with hastily discarded trees lining front curbs or tossed on wood piles.  I like to take it slow, to savor…  to reflect on this event.

Each year seems to bring a deeper meaning of life, while the vastness of the mystery of God grows.  Yet there is a comfortable peace in the mystery that has formed a personal creed…

I believe in a benevolent God… The inherent goodness of all… That our relationship with God is one of complete love… and NOT transactional.  And, as Sr. Peg Dolan said, each of us is a word of God spoken only once.
