So gorgeous. I'm not participating because I don't have time ... but somehow I am. How good to get an email about a retreat that's one minute long!

I only design retreats that I would have the time to participate in! 🤣 So glad you are here.

"Yet Love still takes the risk of birth." May Love lead us to take the risks of love when a safe, more comfortable, less prickly path presents itself to us as a temptation. Thank you for the reminder in this poem of hope. Come, Lord Jesus.

Love that final verse! Thanks for al this that you’re doing for our Advent experience.

P.S. Are these two verses perhaps a single verse in the original text? “That time runs out

and the sun burns late.”
