On the Way to Wonder

         Marty Haugen is one of my favorite meditational hymn writers.  He is one of the composers for the Holden Evening prayers.  He put our psalm for tomorrow to music.  The Gospel reading is the familiar scene of Jesus walking on the water to meet the terrified disciples caught in a storm.  The disciples are so terrified they think Jesus is a ghost and Peter, victim of doubt, says, “If, if you are God, tell me to come and walk on water with you.”  Jesus invites Peter and all who doubt and are afraid to “Come.”  Jesus invites us into a faith adventure even when we are tired, terrified, and doubting.  It is good to sing, “Lord, let us see your kindness,” with this hymn.  Enjoy.
