The Bethania Blade “As a called people of God and as members of Bethania,

we will grow in our faith and share it with others”

January -February 2019

(continued on page 2)

Welcome to a double issue of the Bethania Blade! Aside from the

usual goodies, we also have an article about the Danish practice of Hygge and a Valentine’s idea… I’m not going to tempt Mother Nature’s sense of humor by comment-ing on the weather except to say that, as usual, we’ve had some grey days. We are in, as the hymn notes, “The Bleak Midwinter.” Grass is the color of straw, leaves have long since left the trees, and even the evergreens seem darker, even dustier somehow. Add to this a grey sky and chilly temperatures and you can understand why the hymn writer chose the word “bleak.” That Hymn is one of many that, as a child, gave me the incorrect notion that it was cold and snowy in Bethlehem when Jesus was born. When I grew older and realized that it doesn’t snow in Bethlehem I felt a little duped by those Hymn writers of old. With a bit more theology and a bit more age, I’ve developed a different perspective. While those Hymn-sters may have meant “the snow that was so deep” to be taken literally, I don’t. Like “Bleak Midwinter” and “Lo How a Rose E’er Blooming” I take the winter mentioned in those hymns to be talking about the state of our lives and the state of our souls… not the state of the weather. Before Jesus was born Immanuel (God with us) things were grey and bleak. Who did we have to support us? What hope did we have of heaven? How would we know or even believe that we are, each one, God’s beloved and precious creation? Even God’s own promised peo-ple found themselves and their nation in a bleak and sorry state.

( the continuation of the pastor’s page )

But then The Word was made flesh and lived among us…flushing our lives and our souls with the new birth of Springtime. As Jesus, himself said, “I came that they might have life, and have it abundantly.” -John 10:10b. Christmas came, not just into the literal Winter of our lives, but also the spiritual one. So, now that January and February are up-on us, what are we do to with this? First, we must hang on to the promise of Christmas, of light entering darkness. When our lives feel a bit bleak, it is helpful to remember God is With us to love us, guide, us, and help us. It is good to remember that just as life WILL return to the earth in Spring so, too, will our lives be re-newed. It is also important to not only appreciate this reassurance, but to respond to the gift of God’s love and salvation. Just as a good gardener prepares for the fruit of spring in the fall and in the win-ter, so we also must tend our souls and look after our walk of faith even on the grey days. Seek God through prayer, scripture, and worship. Listen for God in your heart, and seek to follow where God leads. In the words of the hymn:

“What can I give Him, empty as I am? If I were a shepherd, I would give a lamb.

If I were a wise man, I would know my part. What can I give him? I must give my heart.”

(from “In The Bleak Midwinter, based on a poem by Christina Georgina Rossetti)

Blessings,

Pastor Heather 27

St. Valentine’s Day…

Remember when we called it SAINT Valentine’s Day? We

don’t much anymore, but it was named after a saint… the

question is: which one? There are 11 or more St. Valentines on

the Roman Catholic list of Saints. St. Valentine’s Day is com-

monly understood to commemorate the 3rd Century man who

was Bishop of Rome… but little else is know about THAT Valen-

tine… plus several of the others were also supposedly mar-

tyred on Feb. 14th. Hmmmm…

So, what does this mean for us? Like much else in our lives of

faith it is about what we DO with St. Valentine’s Day. There is

nothing wrong with nurturing your romantic relationship. It

might also be a good day to remember that, in the words of

St. John, “We love because God first loved us,”

Need an Idea for Valentines?

Give those closest to you a special Valentine this year…

Include a note in your Valentine Card, or Write a short letter

telling them some of the things you love most about

them… There is a movie called “Ten Things I Hate About

You” Wouldn’t it be better if we shared “Ten Things I Love

About You?”

ous Walled City (no longer in existence) and a time when

boat people crammed the typhoon shelters, a way of life

now practically extinct. The best compliment I can pay the

author is that I didn't want the story to end, I wanted to

know what happened next .... Project Concern has now been

in existence for 50 years. This is the story if its founder and

another great story where one person makes a difference to

countless lives. Turpin is an unsung hero.

MOURNING INTO DANCING by Walter

Wangerin Jr. : "Death doesn't wait till the ends of our lives to meet us and

to make an end," says Walter Wangerin. "Instead, we die a

hundred times before we die; and all the little endings on

the way are like a slowly growing echo of the final BANG!"

Yet out of our many losses, our "little deaths," comes a truer

recognition of life. It is found in our relationships with our-

selves, with our world, with others, and with our Creator.

This is the dancing that can come out of mourning: the

hope of restored relationships. Mourning into Dancing

defines the stages of grief, names the many kinds of loss we

suffer, shows how to help the grief-stricken, gives a new vi-

sion of Christ's sacrifice, and shows how a loving God

shares our grief. We learn from this book that the way to

dancing is through the valley of mourning--that grief is a

poignant reminder of the fullness of life Christ obtained for

us through his resurrection. In the words of writer and critic

John Timmerman, Mourning into Dancing "could well be

the most important book you ever read."

BOOK REVIEWS:

WOMEN OF LIGHT by Walter Russell Bowie:In the

concise, vivid narrative style of his Story of The Bible, the author

tells the stories of a number of famous women from those of the

Bible to Eleanor Roosevelt. The common theme is the heroism of

these woman under trying circumstances and their contribution

to the good of others. If the younger generation is still susceptible

to heroism, this is their book, as it is also for their elders.

VIETNAM DOCTOR by Dr. James W. Turpin: From

the very first paragraph I was surprisingly captivated. There

is no introduction. The reader is immediately thrust into the

middle of the jungle and the action from the onset " The

valley below gleams with sparkling dew hanging like dia-

monds from pine, palm, and mahogany tree, from pineap-

ple plants and from banana trees that grow in the lush

earth which fills abandoned foxholes." The juxtaposition of

tropical paradise with foxholes is perfect. Turpin led by rest-

less and courageous humanitarian stirrings goes into the

jungles of Vietnam and establishes a hillside hospital for a

desperately poor and forgotten tribe caught in the midst of

war. But before that, Turpin begins his charitable clinics in

Hong Kong which has been my home for nearly 20 years.

His true life tale is inspirational. I appreciate his chapter f

the history of Hong Kong before my time - with the notori-

The Danish Art of Hygge By Dr. Reinhard Zaiser, PRN Chaplain, Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin

I have been fortunate not only to travel several times to Denmark,

but also to be married there. While there I was fortunate to expe-

rience “hygge” (pronounced “HOO-gah”) the Danish philosophy

of coziness, simplicity, and good living, first hand. Denmark is

considered one of the world’s happiest countries – it’s nickname is

“Hyggeland.”

Hygge is happiness from within and an excellent form of self-care.

Hygge is about taking plenty of time treating yourself, being with

your family, or welcoming some friends over to your home. For

Wisconsinites, there’s no better time than Winter to try to use the

idea of hygge, Indeed, hygge actually helps you to combat sea-

sonal affective disorder!

To do Hygge try to:

Create a Warm Atmosphere: Light a few candles; turn on low-

temperature lamps; or sit (in your most comfy chair), wrapped into

a soft warm blanket by the fire with a mug of coffee or hot cocoa.

Even create your own cozy hygge spot in your home with a stack

of good books, a cozy blanket, and candles waiting for you. You

can create a hygge basket in the kitchen with your favorite tea,

cocoa, or special treats all ready to go.

Dress Comfortably: Keep it casual, and cozy during your hygge

evenings. Wear layers: a warm sweater, wool socks, pajamas, a

Page 12: January February 2019 The Bethania Blade€¦ · Christmas came, not just into the literal Winter of our lives, but also the spiritual one. So, now that January and February are up-

12

scarf …even your comfortable yoga or jogger pants - all perfect

clothes to hygge in. Have an extra blanket and some pillows near-

by.

Pamper Yourself: Use your best china for your tea or cocoa; take

a bubble bath surrounded by candles; enjoy good food (a special

“treat” you only allow yourself to eat once in a while) or wine. You

can even hygge on an ordinary evening by just relaxing on the

couch with a warm blanket and your favorite TV show.

Socialize and Create Intimacy: Don’t forget the relationships

that bring happiness in your life… family, close friends, even the

one with yourself. Cozy up with a loved one for a movie; play

games; get creative by scheduling a family game night every Fri-

day or inviting friends over once a month for movie and popcorn

night.

How and with whom will you hygge this week, this winter?
