There is so much despair and hopelessness right now in our world. I know for me, it makes me either feel paralyzed – unable to move to do anything to help because I can’t see how my little self can actually be helpful – or it makes me want to grasp at finding a purpose and a path for me to help change the world – which causes swirls of dust in the midst of my own chaos, and doesn’t end up helping anything at all.
Today we will pause so that we can see the signs of hope in our lives, even if they are little signs. And let go of the things that keep us paralyzed or grasping, giving ourselves a chance to really see – see beyond the reality and see the signs of hope. From that place, we can begin to notice the stirrings of our souls as we connect with our creator and our led to participate in the hope and healing of the world.
Our listening portion today is from Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
