Holy Week 2013

By the end of Sunday , Easter, you will be exhausted beyond what you might have imagined Jesus felt on the cross. And you will descend not into hell for three days, but into complete rest and restoration and whatever renews you.

Ah...tradition. We follow the story that is deep on so many levels. Entering into the parts of ourselves that still need to grow through the empathic engagement of the narrative that fills us with both meaning and mystery.

Know that I am praying for all clergy leaders who are walking in front of their congregations this week as they lead them to the reaffirmation of our history of redemption.

"They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength" Isaiah said. I offer one encouragement. Remember to wait. Dashing ahead or walking in a rut will not be a place of waiting.

Let the Lord carry you this week that the story might be his and nothing else.
Blessings and Cheer....and
Love,
Deborah
