Minster Lifeline 47

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

Isaiah 9:2, 6

Rev. Anne asks a very important question:

 

In our darkest times, where can we find light? How can we bring light to others, especially those walking in darkness?

This Advent time, the world needs the hope given to us in the words of Isaiah.  Pray for those in physical darkness such as Ukraine where there is no light or warmth.  Pray too, for those in spiritual darkness that they may open their hearts to Jesus, the light of the world.
