Billy Kangas 2016

Found this little guy in a frozen pond this morning. I love the texture of the water’s surface and I love how this little shoot breaks through it. Reminds me of myself.

Winter catches me unprepared. I find myself still clinging to the leaves of the last season unwilling to move forward unwilling to let go.

December is the season of Advent. A season liturgically designed to prepare us. It tells us to let go; let go of our little narratives for a bigger story; let go of our fears for a greater hope; let go of our failures and live in grace. To leave the kingdom of self and invite the Kingdom of God.
