Creation Awaiting
the Birth of Our Lord Jesus

 

seed pod A shoot shall sprout from the stump of Jesse,
and from his roots a bud shall blossom.
The spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him;
a spirit of wisdom and of understanding.

(Isaiah 11:1-2)

 

Integrity shall be the band around his waist,
and faithfulness a belt upon his hips.

Then the wolf shall be a guest of the lamb,
and the leopard shall lie down with the kid;
The calf and the young lion shall browse together,
with a little child to guide them.

(Isaiah 11:5-6)

garden There shall be no hurt, no harm,
on all my holy mountain;
for the earth shall be filled
with knowledge of the Lord
as water covers the sea.

(Isaiah 11:9)

 

Though the mountains leave their place
and the hills be shaken,
My love shall never leave you
nor my covenant of peace be shaken,
says the Lord, who has compassion for you.

(Isaiah 54:10)

The Dawn
In the tender compassion of our God
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

(Luke 1:78-79)
