Waiting. We all do it. At red lights. In doctor’s offices. When meeting up with friends. Waiting creates a space, an openness in our lives. Time slows as we anticipate what will come next. The experience of waiting has implications for spiritual practice, too. By creating space in our lives, waiting opens us to something new. For Christians, the weeks before Christmas known as Advent is a time of waiting, of creating space, or openness in our lives anticipating something new. Join me in reflecting on this important aspect of spiritual practice. Thanks!
