12/21, Fourth Monday of Advent
The Lord and Ruler will be coming soon,
and his name will be called Emmanuel,
because he will be God-with-us.
Do we ever stop to think about the true
meaning of Emmanuel, God-with-us? That
God came lowered Himself, taking the body of a man, to live with us? That He was like us in all things save
sin? What an immense concept! So difficult to truly comprehend all that
that means. But that is what we are anticipating
this week. God came to be with us, and
He will again.
O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal
light, sun of justice:
come, shine on those who dwell in
darkness and the shadow of death.
