I watched a video shared by a friend on the Holy Fire in Jerusalem.

The story goes on Holy Saturday each year in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre a candle is lit miraculously.

Can you imagine each year being the priest who is waiting inside the alleged the tomb of Christ for the candle to light! This year I believe it took almost 3 hours of waiting.

It reminds me of each morning as I wait to see if there is something to write about or rather is there something I should write about.

Best day,
