RIGHT NOW – the manger, composed of ordinary straw and hay,
waits,
empty and open,
for the gift of Life.
RIGHT NOW - bird nests lie high in barren trees, composed of ordinary twigs and mud,
wait,
empty and open,
for the gift of life.
RIGHT NOW – my heart, full of ordinary clutter, noise, to do lists, worries and pride,
like no room in Bethlehem,
my heart has no room for You.
So I slow down this Advent season and let go of what blocks me from You
And wait,
empty and open,
For the extraordinary and
astonishing gift of Life.
RIGHT NOW – I prepare my heart for You
Waiting
to be filled by You,
Waiting
to be filled with You.

"Empty and open" to wait, and expect a great thing. That's a wonderful attitude, Jeanie, to have.
Karen I find when I fill myself with myself I block hearing God. When I wait, open and empty, I sense his presence.
Waiting.. To just wait on the Lord. Thanks for reminding me.
Beautiful. Thanks.
