Advent photo and musing...

a silent church in Poitiers, France

Since ancient times no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.
Isaiah 64:4



Advent is a season of waiting. Of looking back. Of looking ahead. Of knowing something is coming, but we don't know what, exactly.

No eye has seen...
No ear has heard...

Just as the people in Bethlehem didn't expect a Savior that night,
I wonder, just wonder, what God is going to do that WE don't expect he will do.

My plate is full this week with school stuff, but I'm carving out a little time to sit, to think, to wonder what it is I'm not seeing and hearing...

No eye has seen...
No ear has heard...

Whatcha up to, Lord? I'm waiting...
