I am so thankful for good news. Within hours of the inauguration, President Biden signed executive orders addressing climate change. America is rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement. I am so thankful for every single piece of good news, and this statement literally makes me smile every time I think of it.
Can we share this moment and smile together? Can we smile with all of creation? Can we celebrate this good news with care and prayer for and with all creation?
I am smiling and then I find myself crying, all in the spirit of gratitude, hope and healing.
This is a process. This is progress. This is hope.
