The World Is (Becoming) Full?: A Quote & Thought On Incarnation For Advent & Beyond

mountainsbeyond“The world is full of miserable places.  One way of living comfortably is not to think about them or, when you do, to send money.” (Tracy Kidder, Mountains Beyond Mountains)

I’m currently reading Mountains Beyond Mountains and find myself constantly replaying this line over and over in my head, as well as feeling the ache it induces in my body.  It screams of the need for I/incarnation, and seems a fitting accompaniment to this Advent journey and beyond.
