Momma and Advent both teach me ... that Everything Matters

Today's OOR gave a passage from St Augustine and made me think of St Augustine's many Advent and Christmas homilies on Truth Shall Spring out of the Earth.\

It's painful in a way to look at each note and each little object that is in Mom's house and think, "This matters .... this matters ... this matters because it mattered to her .."

But this is really an Ikon ... for everything, but everything, matters ...

Oh I love you Lord

I love you Momma

Lord Jesus please take good good good good care of my Momma.

Charles Delacroix
Eve of the FEast of St Nicholas
