The final hours of 2021 tread their weary step out from the annuals of our existence and everything we see in the gardens of creation start to remind us of the graphic form of a pandemic virus. And as we name successive waves of variants with Greek letters, we should be reminded of He who was the author of creation: The Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
As we prepare to see out the old year and welcome in a renewed life with the year to come, it is time to reflect on the fundamentals of our rebirth and the Holy Spirit as our indwelling guide.
Our internal soul-walk into the new year is a time of meditational preparation with the Trinity in a spiritual fellowship of connection through every part of our being. It is our ballet dance, our orchestra and our mass choir; that within us connects at a level to move the mountains of our burdens, heaps praise on the new born Christ, and gifts us a souls-song that we reserve for His ears alone.
As the sun sets on the wilderness’ of 2021, new whispers lie in wait for the year to come. May you find the time to bring a closing peace to the year and may you be blessed as “your soul glorifies the Lord and your spirit rejoices in God your Saviour. – He is mindful of the humble state of His servants” (Luke 1:46-48)
Amen
