Moonscape....

Take a walk in the evening when the snow has fallen and the moon rises above it.  The world is brand new with images not seen when the ground alone swallows moonlight.  Stick figures walk out of nowhere, alive as beings of the evening, reaching out their hands toward you. Let the imagination go to work and you land in Tolkien's world the the Ents--the walking, talking trees. 

It is said that the essence of living is to reenter your ordinary world where the routine is expected and be able to gain a whole new vision.  A new vision of the same world reveals the truth that life is always more than surface appearances and may change at any time.

We behold Jesus the man in his public ministry.  At what point and in what ways do we see something more--far greater than imagination and enduring than by the light cast by the moon on the world of snow.
