Listen... a joyous Advent is upon us...
+
“In the beginning was the Word, and the
Word was with God, and the Word was God.” God speaks! And marvelous things are
produced. Throughout scripture, the Creator speaks
through the prophets, revealing the Mystery of Salvation, preparing humanity to
enter into the Kingdom
of Light
The Son of God, who is the Word and who, by
the pronouncement of God became the Son of the Virgin, speaks to our hearts,
calling each of us His own. Listen to that voice; let His Word fill your heart.
You will be filled with a glimmer of hope, a flicker of peace and a spark of
joy that will fuel the flame of a great burning love which will illuminate our
way to never-ending Light.
These “lamps of fire”
enkindled within will become “the living waters of the spirit”; we will be
transformed into a light-filled, holy people eager and willing to do our part
in the building up of the City of God. And we will sing the song in Isaiah’s
heart, “Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord,
the Lord, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. With joy you
will draw water from the wells of salvation.”
Creator God, of light, of love; send us
a Ruler from your kingdom above,
show us the way to everlasting
day.
Jesus Christ the King of whom the prophets sing, our Mighty Saviour,
everlasting peace you bring.
My Lord, My God! Who fills me with pure
love; take me beyond to the heavens above.
You lift me up, you make me whole.
You fill my life and transform my soul.
