12/9, Second Wednesday of Advent
The Lord will come and he will not
delay.
He will illumine what is hidden in
darkness
and reveal himself to all the nations.
This is the hope we have to keep in the
face of all the evil in the world. When
things look like they're tumbling down around us, say after the terrorist
attack in Paris or 9/11, remember that God ultimately is the victor over all
the nations. It can be difficult to
think of the long term, especially in such an instantaneous gratification
society, but Christianity has always been a religion of the long view. After all, we are not living for this life,
but for eternal life.
