Susan LaffertyStar light. Star bright.
Catching the eyes of those who study night skies.
Radiance. Set apart. Outshining all the others.
Something unusual is going on. Beyond normal star patterns. And they mark the time of its appearing.
I look up in the early dark of winter sky. And think about those wise men long ago.
Trees. Luminous in the forest. As the dying begins.
Letting go. Piece by piece. Leaf by leaf.
Orange. Yellow. Red.
Beautiful. And certain.
Seasons change.
“Tear your hearts….” The words grab my attention.
I’m reading the Word of the Lord that came to the prophet. Joel.
Judgment approaches. The Day of the Lord is coming. And God extends the invitation to return to Him.
Even now.
In this season. Advent. As we wait and watch. Anticipating the coming of the Savior.
