Waiting on the Lord - Dec 3 - First Sunday in Advent
The prophet Isaiah knew God had the power and potential to act to deliver his people, but he was also simultaneously aware that the empty righteousness of God's people had put up a huge barrier between him and them. The solution, as always, is to admit that the wall between us and God is our fault, and appeal to his love for us - as our creator and redeemer - to rescue us from our self-imposed exile.
