Advent Reflection Series
Monday, December 5 - Isaiah 35:1-10, Luke 5: 17-26
Reflection by Gerry Killeen ’69, Board of Trustees member:
In just twenty days, we will all celebrate the joyous and holy anniversary of the birth of Christ.
Especially in these unsettling times, Isaiah's words reflect, for me, the kind of "everlasting joy and gladness" we should all hope for, as we approach December 25th.
Isaiah's words of "seeing the glory of the Lord" hold the promise of better days to come...of hope for a new time of peace and prosperity, where "no traveler, not even fools, shall go astray" and "sorrow and sighing shall flee away." What a blessed Christmas gift that would be for us all.
