Week 4: Sunday Therefore the Lord himself will give you this sign: the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and shall name him Immanuel. (Isaiah 7:14) Reflection Sometimes the signs God gives are unmistakable. Sometimes the signs are not so obvious. What signs do we see when we look around us? Sometimes it is hard to see Gods signs because the signs of our world are so ever present and large. How many times this month have you seen this sign: "ONLY 20 (or 18, or 10, or 6 or
) MORE SHOPPING DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS." Do we ever stop to think, "How many praying days left until Christmas?" Prayer for the Advent Wreath Lord, our God, we praise You for Your Son, Jesus Christ, for He is Emmanuel, the Hope of all people. Advent Action Look around you for a sign of Gods presence. When you find it, share it with someone. Prayer O come, O Key of David, come And open wide our heavenly home; Make safe the way that leads on high, And close the path to misery. |
