A Time ~

ADVENT

 a
time of light
a
time of truth
a
time of revelation
a
time of preparation


 I will lead the blind
by
ways they have not known,
along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;
I will turn the darkness into light before them
and
make the rough places smooth.
These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.
Isaiah 42:16

Love the way you brought light into the picture.
A much needed reminder as we deal with the pre-Christmas commercial frenzy. Thank you for such gentle
reminders that nudge us into quiet pondering of priorities.

Beautiful. I love the picture with the points of light. The promises made, the promises kept. The Father who loves us all.

Lovely reminder Susan; encouraging words to accompany your wonderful photo of light.

(and 'co-incidentally', my word verification is 'nosick' as in 'there shall be no sick in the Kingdom')
