Lamp shining in a dark place. That’s what Peter calls it.
Truth speaking. Holding us steady while it is night.
So, pay attention. Watch and learn.
Until the Day dawns.

Never fails to catch my heart. Luminous words about the Savior. Back in the major and minor prophets.
Mystery to the listeners.
But revealed to us in the New Testament and the coming of Christ.
Today, consider Isaiah 64 and Israel’s prayer.
Christmas prophecies. Read and proclaimed. Every Advent. Christmas Eve. Christmas Day.
Among them, Isaiah’s words.
“For to us a child is born,
to us a Son is given,
and the government will be
on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.”
Isaiah 9:6
