Thankful Every Day 12-02-24
Today I give thanks for the darkness of night, the time we rest, reflect, and build strength. Today is the first day of Advent, a time when darkness threatens to overtake the world, a time when we prepare for the journey ahead, not knowing where that journey will lead us. As our eyes adjust, however, we see the stars, tiny pinholes of brightness to guide us on our way. And then - just as we’re about to despair of ever seeing daylight again - the shift begins. Slowly, softly, daylight overtakes the night. And what we found during the long darkness, our strength and courage and wisdom, finally can be put to use. I am thankful for the darkness.
