Monday in 2 Advent

Monday in 2 Advent.

I had some music on in the background today while i was rushing around.   It was a new album by Sting, and i didn't hear anything else except "how will I deal with a broken world?"  It too me a couple of hours to finally sit down and let that simple verse work through me.  I was feeling rather scattered and like I still had so much to do before kids got home... and as i sat down to journal a prayer, I said to myself and whatever cat was in the kitchen, "I am just going to squeeze a little Holy into this space".  And then, I felt suddenly at ease.  And I realized that even if if feels like I am squeezing in the Holy, the Holy will expand to fill all the tense, crazy, broken space.  Let the Holy in even if it needs to squeeze in.  It will make room.
