Christmas is coming
The waiting begins
It should be a time of joy and anticipation and yet the lectionary gives us Isaiah 64:1-9.
7 No-one calls on your name or strives to lay hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us and made us waste away because of our sins.
God is gone
The people wait
Impatient
Fearful
Trusting
that God will return… soon
God is missing… but the rumours persist.
God is missing… but hope remains.
God is missing… but the people keep watch.
The waiting begins
what do you wait for?
