Like a sub-atomic particle, I am moved, affected by not just this but also by the next page, the 'future' to this page. Of course, I kind of cheated & read that page first, working my way backwards in time to this page. Anyway, they are helping me gain a healthier framework to guide my grief. Before my wife Pam died she would say she's the lucky one, she gets to be with Jesus, and we stay here. In my grief I forgot what I had lived, glimpsed, grasped for many times, that I also get to be with Christ and he with me. I chose in my grief to live in emptiness and keep emptiness in me. It's draining. Thanks for helping me re-fill with Jesus Christ. Thank you, Carl.

What I'm finding is that there is, indeed, a perpetual Incarnation and a perpetual Resurrection within the daily prayer cycle. And now that I'm folding that into my daily Advent practice it makes BOTH more meaningful. Lovely thought - thank you!
