Clearing the way continues, Gracious God. As this shortest of months brings more snow to shovel but with an end in sight, there are also the warming temperatures and the melting that happens – a way for the greening of spring, a path through a pandemic, a vision of a more just world for all your people. These are dreams where our hope lies when we travel with you. In spite of days that feel like two steps forward/one step back, we have glimpsed the possible. Be with us in our thawing out, our warming hearts, and our hands that reach out to comfort, support, and help. May we dwell in the possible with you, Almighty One. Amen.
