Mary and Joseph – how can I, like them, trust God’s invitation and unexpected intrusion into my life? Am I willing to say ‘yes’ to something wholly new and venture into the future in faith? How does saying ‘yes’ help me draw near?

Many of the things on my grateful list repeat, such as my family, but there are certainly more whimsical things that pop up from time to time…dark chocolate, silly seagulls that Olive chases on the beach, shows that make me laugh like Ted Lasso and Schitts Creek, Christmas lights, Café Kilim baristas. What’s on your list?
