Some More Advent Thoughts



truly he taught us
to love one another
his law is love
and his gospel is peace
chains shall he break
for the slave is our brother
and in his name
all oppression shall cease

I sincerely wish that I had something profound to say about these words.
But what can I say that is more profound than the Gospel truth?
I cannot think of a single thing...


his power and glory
evermore proclaim!

Thanks for noticing! ;)
I tried to fix it but my banner is "off" - the size is a smidge too big. What were your banner measurements?

Accept, O Lord, my thanks and praise for all that you have done for me. I thank you for the splendor of the whole creation, for the beauty of this world, for the wonder of life, and for the mystery of love. Above all, I thank you for your Son Jesus Christ; for the truth of His Word and the example of his life; for his steadfast obedience, by which he overcame death; and for his rising to life again, in which we are raised to the life of your kingdom. Amen.
