Dear God, we call from our short lives to you who are the beginning and the end. O hear me now in my fear of what will come at the end, at the end of my life. For I know that my life will end and so too the lives of all whom I have loved. I don't ask that you do anything about this fate. I know how the story ends. I only ask to live this wonderful life more vividly, more deeply, more compassionately, more for others than for myself, that my life may therefore have meaning, and be a gift to all whose lives I touch. …and be delightful and surprising to you, my heart, my home, my God. Amen.
This endlessly fascinating life we get to lead goes through storms and calms, snow and sun. Herein are the reflections of a progressive Christian, navigating the weather just like you.
