December 4
The more people arm themselves with faith,
hope, prayer, and conversion, the more they
prepare the way for the coming Lord and
remove every obstruction that may lie on his
way to us. If only a yearning for him were to
arise, an awaiting of his promise, then he
would be content. When everyone sighs and
weeps for him, longs and hopes for him, then
it is time for him to start on the way to meet
those who wait in prayer, those who cannot rest
until all the world is full of his glory.
Johann Christoph Blumhardt, from
The Proclamation, The Cry of the Chosen People:
Prepare the Way.
