                                                                              Winter Thoughts
Now in the New Year, on January 25, we celebrate the Conversion of St. Paul. A devout, zealous man, he rides on the road to Damascus. On that road he is taken down and granted a vision. The Kingdom of God, the place where heaven meets earth, the center of his faith, changes. He sees a brilliant radiance: the face of Jesus Christ. Paul’s journey of conversion now begins. For some twelve more years Paul studies and prays, through a virtual winter of solitude, being prepared for the road ahead. Then he returns to the nascent Christian community in Jerusalem. And then into the world, carrying the Gospel of Christ, crucified, resurrected, and present amongst us.

Embracing the winter respite opens invisible doors to the future. We are on the long journey of conversion, with its ups and downs. The Holy Spirit is working for and within us, and it is time to bring this to mind. Deep thinking is in order. Follow every idea through. There are nets to be abandoned, and new steps to be taken. The coming springtime is inevitable. Let’s allow ourselves a time-out while the sap is still dormant, to take stock and recharge. The road to grace is open, and renewal is on the way!                                                                                                    -Bishop Berg
