This Is It!

Waiting.
Longing.
When will someone or something come to make it all okay?
When will someone arrive to transform our situation so that we can truly live, fully live?
Waiting for so long.
Longing for so much.
And what appears is a helpless baby who grows in wisdom and love and is executed by the state at the age of 33.
This one who kept the company of prostitutes and tax collectors, who threw out the money changers, who said love your enemies, surely this cannot be the one for whom we have been waiting and longing.
But if it were, what is the message we hear and know?
“Don’t wait any longer.
No one else is coming.
The fullness of time is now.
We can live and love our lives fully here and now just as they are.”
This message is good and great news indeed, that we can live our given lives, our real situations as a gift, in humility, in gratitude, in compassion, in ecstasy.
Yes, this is good news beyond anything we could ever expect or anticipate.
This is it!
All that is is good and perfect!
You, just as you are, are accepted and sustained in mystery!
The past, just as it is, is received by history!
The future is wildly open for you to co-create!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
