Wrought wtih Travail

[I]n the middle of this time is the Spirit, as always, working through our confusion and conflict to bring a new thing into being. For this is the eternal work of the Spirit – to resurrect God’s people when their old ways are dying. ~Brian C. Taylor, “The Episcopal Church as Prophet to our Day,” 3/4/07 sermon, www.all-angels.com/sermons/2007/03/post_1.php, via Ida Forbis

Our old ways are forever dying and bringing us new life, that is quite often wrought with travail. At such times, the comfort of the holy spirit is seldom experienced as comfort. ~jpc

Bring it on anyway. Namaste.
