Israel, An Advent Song of Hope
This first Sunday of Advent invites us to step out of the frantic holiday clock and into the way the Church keeps time. Before we ever light a candle, Scripture reminds us that history isn’t random and our lives aren’t adrift; time becomes meaningful only inside a story, and the Church has always kept time by the story of Jesus. In a world shaped by consumer calendars and cultural countdowns, Advent re-teaches us how to wait, how to hope, and how to live toward the coming King. Today we light the Prophecy Candle—the Candle of Hope—and remember that God is with us, God has come, and God is coming again.
