Advent, a thought
When we’re sick, especially a long time, sometimes it
becomes hard to anticipate anything with pleasure. Festivals and
festivities all need too much work. Fun is stimulating which again
drains the little resources left for the day to day. The ‘having come’
of Jesus I can truly celebrate with joy, the ‘is here’ of Jesus has been
my constant consolation, and the ‘will come’ is a hope , not just for
my weary bones, but for my heart to meet up with in full the one who has
truly stuck by me in all this.

Thanks Liz, what a great reminder that our future hope is built on the solid foundation of Jesus life on earth and the daily reality of relationship with him though the spirit - despite the situations we find ourselves in.

Hi Liz
