ADVENT LIGHT . .
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God . . . The Word became flesh and lived for a while among us (JOHN 1: 1, 14)".
ADVENT LIGHT By Ernestine M. Schindler.
"When I felt the plodding rhythm of a depressed mood
that a minor musical key often creates, I realized that an
old hymn, originally recorded
in Latin during the ninth century, was pacing through
my head at a plod of a 4/4 beat. The song:
"O Come, O Come, Emmanuel!"
Outside my window, repetitive
rain drips . . . . . . . . and
I know that the miracle of the
Son is trying to renew His joy
and love of re-creation in me
and in you. "Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
shall come to thee, O Israel!"
* N.B. Emmanuel/meaning "GOD with us."
