Promises to David, Foretelling Christ’s Kingship
2 Samuel 7:14-16
“I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will punish him with a rod wielded by men, with floggings inflicted by human hands. But my love will never be taken away from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from before you. Your house and your kingdom will endure forever before me; your throne will be established forever.”

Today’s Advent Thoughts
Who plants seeds in the dead of winter? Actually lots of people do. It depends on the need of the future plants, just how early in winter to start. In the Spirit seedtime and harvest overlap.
In other words it is always a good time to sow seeds which bear spiritual fruit. Giving, showing kindness, growing patience, are all perennially welcome.
Light a Candle in the World with Prayer
Pray for Light
Take time to consider a situation that needs prayer; pray for God’s light and wisdom to shine into that place and be given to those involved.
