I know that many of you find a special word at the start of every year, a word with a meaning which you want to paint the year with. I have never done that, but as I was out hiking with Terje this morning, I knew that I have a word for this year, a word I share with the rest of our world I think. The word HOPE.
The Norwegian pastor and writer Eyvind Skeie has written a beautiful advent hymn. One of the lines in the song goes something like this:
let us all share the hope so that good things can happen
let earth and heaven meet, a candle is lit for that
Hope is easy to find on beautiful days like today. We all know that life is not always like this, but let us do what we can to make 2021 the year of HOPE, for ourselves, our family, our neighbours, for the world.
