Somewhere in our lives, God has parted the waters and taken us out of what we knew and given us passage into a vast wilderness of unknowing. We carry within the promise of the Imago Dei but we don't always know how to fulfill it. We look to the Holy Spirit to fill each of us with His Holy Fire, that we might be a manifestation of Holy Spirit and breakthrough to the promise.  Amen.
