For the beginning of Advent, the daily reflections for this week come from Gayle Boss’ book, All Creation Waits: The Advent Mystery of New Beginnings (Paraclete Press, 2016).
“…though she is dissolving, every stressed particle of her stays focused on the silver bead of utter quietude. It’s this radical simplicity that will save her. And deep within it, at the heart of her stillness, something she has no need to name, but something we might call trust: that one day, yes, the world will warm again, and with it, her life.”
-“Painted Turtle,” All Creation Waits by Gayle Boss
