Isaiah, the guide

ADVENT Sunday Week 2


Isaiah 11:1-10
Matthew 3:1-12

Isaiah is our Advent guide  
The prophet continues with the vision
The Peaceable kingdom
The wolf dwellingsharing the same homewith the lamb
The leopard snuggly napping with the kid
The calf and the lion playful

and a little child to lead them.

We taste it whenever we rise above predator and prey
winner and loser
victim and victimizer  

The vision is lush and fertile. 

We wait in joyful hope for that!
John the Baptist points 
toward
toward the vision
Christ is the towards.


O come O come EmmanuelGod with us
