Dancing with Divines
December 19, 2021 (Sunday)
Twenty-Second Day of Advent
Divine
Today’s Divine is Anne Hutchinson who was spiritual leader in religious reformer. Though coming from a Puritan background she disagreed with many Calvinist teachings, and later joined the Antinomian movement which taught free grace. Hutchinson was later banished from the Massachussets Bay Colony, and was killed in New Netherland during a raid by the Narragansett people.
Entry
Prayer
From my places of exile I cry to You Emmanuel, and ask that You would bring me joy and comfort for my sorrows. Come and turn my present mourning into dancing, and thank You for the times which You have done this in the past. Also, come unto those in other places of exile, and soothe their griefs with comfort and joy that they might sing Your praises. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
