Advent


Advent is a time when we ask, even plead with God not to leave us alone, for when God leaves us to our own choices and turns us over to our own ways, we are certain to drift from him. Our indifference to God is soon turned into spiritual boredom, a boredom that leads to spiritual inertia and ultimate death to spiritual realities. Advent is a time to cry, ‘O God, turn me away from my indifference, create in me a heart of repentance, and lead me to the waters of spiritual refreshment.” (Robert Webber, Ancient-Future Time, 43)

This sight lead me to the waters of spiritual refreshment this past week.  Praising God for his beauty and refreshment in an incredibly "BRUTIFUL" world.
