This Sunday we light our third symbolic sparkler and remember the meaning of Advent (the visit of Jesus).We wait and we marinate in:The remembrance of Israel’s yearning for the coming Messiah, to save, forgive and restore them.Our hope for the second coming of Jesus where everything will be restored.The realisation of our own need for Gods grace, through Jesus.
God, stir in our hearts excitement about the visit of your Son.
God, stir in our hearts excitement about the visit of your Son.
Jesus, thank you that as we wait, even waiting through pain, we are aware you are here.
Thank you that your promises are like honey... help us to pass on the sweetness.
