Actually, it's past time in my heart and in my soul.
Each Advent I journey to Northern New Mexico- to Taos.
Travel is later this year than in years past, and I'm longing to get going.
Interesting to think how I want time to hurry up so I can get to Taos to slow down.
Today, in my head I have been picturing the landscape outside the airplane window as the plane descends to its landing in Albuquerque. I know it by heart because for seventeen years I have taken this journey.
Just now reading the Thought for Today from Iona Books, I'm reminded
"Jesus calls us
To travel lightly
JESUS CALLS US
TO FAITH". Ruth Burgess, from Growing Hope
I shall travel lightly, both in carry-on luggage only, but in my soul as well -- as I turn from those pieces in my life that give me burden, and instead turn to a time and place that give solace to my soul.
