We gather here for a myriad of reasons--some of us just like the music, some of us want a break from the outside world, all of us need each other, whether we know it or not...
some of us come to be comforted and some of us come to hear a word from who we understand God to be.
Regardless of why we come, life often feels like we're fumbling along in the dark--& the dark can be both beautiful & terrifying, but occasionally a flash of light pierces and we feel certain of something for a moment.
I wonder if this certainty is like comfort--that being sure of something, even for a moment, soothes a troubled soul, or gives strength to our joy.
Know that the God who accompanies us in the darkness also abides with us in the light, offering comfort in the meantime but dreaming intimacy and resurrection & redemption for us in the end.
Let us worship this God now.
