    You Don’t Have to Pretend You’re Ok…(Advent 2024)


    “You have fed them with the bread of tears and given them tears to drink in full measure. You make us the scorn of our neighbors; our enemies laugh among themselves.” - Psalm 80:5-6


    The scriptural tradition is hopeful, optimistic, and determined. It is also honest and raw.


    When the writers feel abandoned and forsaken, they say so. When the writers feel overwhelmed, they say so. When they feel like they’re clutching their last straws, they say so.


    They give themselves permission to feel what they feel and they honor those feelings.


    That said, after we cry, we get back up, wash our faces, anoint our heads with oil, and move forward into our future. We trust that our footsteps will be led out of the shadows and into the sunshine of God’s love.


    You don’t have to pretend you’re ok, but know that you’re going to be ok.


    I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
