While our pocket calendars remind us that tomorrow is the second Sunday of January, the liturgical calendar highlights for us that we will be celebrating Baptism of the Lord Sunday, where we not only remember Christ’s baptism, but our own as well, for our baptism is rooted in Christ, and it marks us as God’s people.
Because God inspires us to sing a new song to the Lord, we will share in the gift of music, and participate in the responsive readings through the liturgy.
Today, during Advent, preparing for Christmas, we too are invited to add our voices to Mary’s song and to begin to tune the strings of transformation in the key that Mary sings her song. However, it has become difficult in our culture because the world so grotesquely distorts the message of God’s music…. The world tries to convince us to tune our strings to a different key.
During these dark times, some may be asking, “Where is God?” Pastor Tom sheds some light on the subject, in today’s meditation designed to bring peace in the Advent season. “Here is our God who eliminates the mountains of misery, in order to reveal the horizons of hope.”
