“Changed in the Waiting: Peace”
Text: Luke 1:39-55
We close this advent season with Mary’s song following her meeting with her relative Elizabeth, who was expecting the child that would become John the Baptist. Mary’s words are both a statement of faith and prophetically tell of how God will raise up those who are oppressed. As we get ready to celebrate the coming of our Lord, we recognize that our hope in Jesus is found in the days and in the moments where we are still waiting, living faithfully, and are being agents of peace in this world.
