The Archdiocese of Cologne has an attractive Advent calendar on the web. Here’s today’s entry:
 |
Too much good. God is radiant. He shares with us. He shines around us. |
But we’re afraid of him. We don’t know how to interpret him. To take in the good. After all, who can. Mistrust runs deep in us. Better to give more than we take. We want to be on the safe side, and have some good. |
With God the rules are different. We’re still learning them. Be not afraid. –Mechthild Hüsch |
