Communion reading JH 2 2011


Life is hard and cold and windy, and we’d like God to just make it all better. And yet life has a way of continuing.
God be our strength.
Our feet keep moving, inspite the fact that our mouths are saying “I can’t do this”.
God be our motivator.
Walking humbly means just walking. And walking. And walking some more.  Even when you don’t know why you walk or where you walk.  Even when you just want to go home.
God be our comfortor.
To walk humbly is to trust there is a point, to bite your tongue when you want to demand an explanation from God, to grasp desperately onto the possibility that He knows what He is doing.
God guide us.
To walk humbly is to wonder where you are going and to walk anyway.
God be our light.
Amen.
