“Living as we do in an imperfect world, we make our peace with its broken realities — sometimes we make our peace too easily. We begin to expect that we, too, will reflect its values. We begin to think that a bit of conspicuous consumption here, a degree of profanity there, a wandering and lustful eye here, a bit of sloth there, that all these things are normal, just part of being a person. It is and it isn’t. It is normal, but it is far from the abundant life God has for us. And so Jesus asks us as well — ‘Do you want to be healed?’” — from Rev. Mike Jordan’s Advent devotion series. Check it out every day!
