Well, that’s OK then.

Toni, you are a friend and thanks for the concern. Between the lines has to do with the Exodus reference. I’m not one who is at ease with spoken words. But God provides when they are needed.

Hi Linea, good to hear you’re finding God in what you’re doing. I don’t know which lines to read between, except that you’ve been very quiet about a lot of things that you weren’t quiet about before, and I take it that things are therefore not easy to discuss.

Our love to you and your family.

So, Toni, Christmas starts on Christmas Eve for you – meaning you do decorating that night? No prior preparations? Then do you observe Christmas tide for the 12 days following? Or what do you do to celebrate the incarnation?

Christmas starts Christmas eve for me. Only I have the church Christmas dinner to organise, along with carols & all that.

Christmas eve.

Maybe buy a tree tomorrow to leave in the garden until next weekend.

Then, hundreds of years later, born in Bethlehem, a small town in the Roman Empire, their hope is finally realized, but with a twist, because Jesus is not the earthly warrior-king many expected. And even after waiting, the final realization of the Messiah’s eternal reign is still yet to be seen, coming in the future, when the baby born in Bethlehem returns in power to judge the living and the dead. All of this makes our own waiting seem pretty insignificant. Somehow waiting five extra minutes for a dried out bun and a tiny piece of meat from a fast-food restaurant seems pretty trivial.

Wonderful thoughts. And welcome back. I’ve been checking back every day just in case!

Linea, how you would love the Advent season in Sweden. Simple, clean, classy … white lights in the windows, four white candles with one more being lit each week, then Lucia on Dec 13 with white dresses and more candles and beautiful music, concerts galore, and a tastefully decorated tree with white candles and straw & wooden ornaments put up just before Christmas Eve. Churches everywhere are filled to the breaking point and people sing and listen and worship together. Just wonderful … I’m a little homesick.
