Meditation

Hi there,

We've reached the end of the passages drawn from the Old Testament, so today is a rest day before we move into the readings from Luke, Matthew, and John next week.

The passages we have copied from Genesis and Isaiah the past two weeks have taken us on a journey of revelation from the desperate fall of man, and God's salvation plan revealed almost instantly, through the confirmation of that promise of redemption to Abraham, to the increasing detail Isaiah's prophesies provide on the nature of the Savior, His character and His Kingdom.

Like the Jews of that time, we are left waiting expectantly for the Messiah.

After 400 years of waiting, He finally broke his silence with two angelic visitations, first to Zacharias and then to Mary. Which is where we take up the story on Monday.

If you'd like to read ahead, these are next week's passages;

​​Luke 1 26-35, 38.​ ​Luke 2:1-7.​ ​Luke 2:8-16. ​​

​​Matthew 2:1-12.​ ​John 1:1-14.​​

I'll be back tomorrow with reflections from the week.

Andy
