This Sunday is the 4th in Advent. We’re almost there. The waiting is almost over…
And yet the lectionary has us at Gabriel telling Mary she’s going to have a child. It’s as though they don’t want us to get to the birth.
Perhaps all this waiting is important.
Perhaps we’re meant to hang around for a while longer…
wondering…
wishing…
watching…
It’ll be here. Soon enough.
Or maybe too soon for some.
