Here
is a brief reflection from Edwina Gateley. It was posted on Journey with Jesus.
Be Glad!
“Look!
The virgin will conceive a child!
She will
give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel
(which
means 'God is with us'). Isaiah 7:14
God
is soaked
in our world.
God's Spirit
lives and breathes
in and through
all that is.
in our world.
God's Spirit
lives and breathes
in and through
all that is.
We
are lost
only when we
do not understand
that God
is already with
and in
each one of us.
only when we
do not understand
that God
is already with
and in
each one of us.
Our
task is recognition
of God's initiative
to be at home in us—
acceptance
of God-With-Us.
of God's initiative
to be at home in us—
acceptance
of God-With-Us.
Then
we cannot but
be glad.
be glad.
