*Abba

“After our own kind of run-on “annus horribilis” that’s dragged from one staggering year of grief and loss into the next, I can stand on the edge of (autumn) fall, and see what’s held us, what’s holding us:

The way through awful is awe.

Daily doses of (Abba) God-awe is a kind of medicine that treats trauma.

Trauma is when pain overwhelms us. Awe is when (Abba) God overwhelms us. Which is why awe heals trauma: our deep pain is overwhelmed by our great (Abba) God.

All gratitude to (Abba) God begins with awe of (Abba) God.

If you want to be a more thankful person, you need to look for ways to be more in awe.

Openly thankful people are people who are open to awe.

Wonder can be found wherever one’s feet are.

Today:
Be simply awed … stilled … and let go.

BeAwed #BeStilled #LetGo”
