Yearning. Let us accept yearning, even welcome it. Yearning is real and can help keep us aware,
humble, and grateful. Yearning and how
we respond to it reveal our needs and values.
Yearning can bring us together and move us to help each other. And in yearning we may even experience God’s
yearning for connection with us.
Fulfillment. Let us also welcome wholesome fulfillment of
our yearnings, for it brings joy and refreshment and strengthens hope.
