Tree decorating are starting to make their appearance in homes, and brightly lit decorations don the outside of homes. We are in the first week of Advent ~ HOPE. After the last year, and this year that we've been having, there is always hope with Christ. Hope of things to come, the eradication of this terrible virus called Covid-19, and blessings of all kinds. We have the promise of Hope always. The trees and decorations are signs that all still have Hope of better days because we believe.
Just scribbline about Hope and Love that came down on that night with a babe born in a stable.
Reading today, November 28 is from 1 Peter 1:2-3
Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sancitification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace be multiplied. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
The hope was in what was to come, and the love that is always.

At the start of this Advent, may we experience an expectancy as we still ourselves and lean in to hear the words He whispers into our hearts each day. Blessings!
