“The waves come in, the waves go out. The tide goes up, the tide goes down. Storms blow in, then blow away. Spring arrives and gives way to summer; summer drops into fall, and fall becomes winter. We live through it all, weaving the ebbs and flows of our own lives with the seasons, the storms and calms of other lives, the joys and sorrows of connection with others and our world. Everything is transition – except for the solid ground of God’s love, on which we stand, breathing his holy air.”
