Where did February go? I have turned around twice and it is gone. And now I am at the middle of March and can't imagine Easter is just three weeks away. I am living the modern life that is way too busy and way too difficult to change.
Sometimes I hear a phrase and especially one that I hear more than once in a day, and there is something about it that strikes me as "the still small voice" calling me. The voice of God speaking to me. I recently hear "Hold on" in unusual clarity and began to listen as to what that voice was saying to me. "Hold on" can be an angry voice, that is saying now wait just a minute. It can be a voice that is a command like when a load is about to tumble - stop, wait, hold on! It can also be a plea to just keep that grip - don't let go - hold on, help is on the way, hold on, tomorrow will be better, hold on to your faith.
I hear it as that last voice...hold on...I've got you, don't let go, keep the faith. So as I continue to tumble through Lent, I hold on to the voice that is telling me to hold on.
Thanks be to God
Amen
