We started the month with Entourage Jazz&#8217;s annual Christmas Concert. Our youngest son has been performing all over town with his choir. And our church had it&#8217;s Christmas concert last weekend. One of the pieces performed by our choir director, Erin Reil, accompanist Nathan Cleaveland, and his partner, Naomi Brandt, was <em>Snow Angel<\/em>, the fifth movement of a choral work by Canadian composer Sarah Quartel. I&#8217;ve been listening to it a lot since then. You can listen to it by playing the video below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>I went to my window one bright winter\u2019s morn <\/em><br><em>and gazed at the new fallen snow.<br>The world overtaken by flurries of white <\/em><br><em>had set my surroundings aglow.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>I looked to the heavens seeking the source <\/em><br><em>of this wonderland newly appeared.<br>When there I spied a snow angel <\/em><br><em>holding the flakes and spreading them near.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>She sang: \u201cEven though the snow may blow, <\/em><br><em>there\u2019s not a wind can stop my music.<br>For I know that winter shelters life.\u201d<\/em><br><br>from Snow Angel, Sarah Quartel<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Snow Angel - Sarah Quartel (Part 5)\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P-fO8P5Iv04?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We don&#8217;t have a lot of snow here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We enjoy it when we have a few days of it each winter season. And it&#8217;s fun to drive into the nearby mountains and play in the snow&#8211;at 8,000 feet elevation&#8211;in the mountain meadows and Ponderosa Pine forests, before driving back down to the mere-mile-high desert. But I remember winters in Michigan with multiple feet of snow on the ground&#8230;snow on lake ice&#8230;snow beneath trees in forests&#8230;snow blanketing our garden beds. I know very well how a layer of snow can be shelter in the freezing cold of winter. And, as I get older, I know ever more how important a season of rest is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Angels don&#8217;t figure strongly in my personal spirituality, or that of the Lutheran church that I belong to. To me, they&#8217;re agents of God: mostly messengers. Unlike some faith traditions, I don&#8217;t see them as avatars of specific qualities of God (like love, justice, or healing), and I don&#8217;t feel an affinity to one in particular. In my spirituality, an angel means something like, <em>&#8220;Incoming message! Pay attention!&#8221;<\/em> It could be anything, but most likely it&#8217;s going to be something I would never have imagined on my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I was decorating our Christmas tree this year, I noticed that we have an awful lot of angels on our tree! Most of them are Kristin&#8217;s. Which makes sense to me, because in my life, Kristin has been a powerful source of enrichment: bringing possibilities into my life that I never would have imagined or made happen on my own. I sometimes joke that Kristin is the agent of chaos in my life! That&#8217;s a very good thing, because without someone like her constantly jostling me around, I lean toward being a very boring person.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"wp-block-uagb-image-gallery uagb-block-f7e63a72     \"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div
