Newness…..

Trying out a new web server for my musings, as that is how I best describe my writings.  Lately there’s been too much newness in my life.  Something there is about Change at my age that is a bit troubling, although sometimes exhilarating with new great grandchildren, and new careers for family members, but the news of a beloved minister moving to a new field of service will be one of those changes that will take some time of adjustment.

Newness is very often not a bad time.  As one of my daughters reminded me in her tribute to my 80th birthday.  When we don’t change,when we are content like mushrooms, sitting in goop up to our chins, we die.  Newness is life, newness is anticipation, newness is what we celebrate with this season as we await the birth of one who will tear open the heavens and come down to change our lives.  Newness….embrace it
