This last weekend several storms pelted Southern California. On Saturday night we lost power in the area around my convent for about two hours. Although we did have flashlights, they don’t work without batteries! Fortunately, nuns always have candles for prayer, ambience, etc. Still, we were grateful when the power was restored. The experience sharpened my awareness of how much I depend upon power for light and warmth, echoing my yearning this Advent for Christ’s light and life, the true source of power in all our lives.
