Yes, this is my First Christmas.....as a Deacon of course. Fr. Andrew reminded me and the entire congregation of that, along with the story ...

A four letter word!

We are all aware of the four letter words that just aren't said in public, at least they shouldn't be.  Unfortunately, each and every day it gets harder to go through a day where they are thrown out there, like it's just a common everyday word. Yet, in today's reading I uncovered one of the worst one's to hear, WAIT! Yes, the dreaded wait! 

This word isn't one many if any of us enjoy hearing. "What we await are new heavens and earth where, according to his promise, the justice of God will reside!" Certainly we can all await for true justice. But here is the clincher ......... "While waiting for this, make every effort to be found without stain or defilement, and at peace in his sight!"  Using an old sports cliche, the ball is literally in our court. We need to make the effort, we need to give it our best shot. It won't be easy, and at times maybe not fun, but to finally achieve justice, I think it's worth the wait!

Bonjour et Adieu mes Amis,

Mitch
