The wolf shall dwell with the lamb.
The leopard shall lie down with the  young goat.
These words of Isaiah break down our doubting dam.
They keep our spirit afloat.

With them we know that Christmas is here.
We can keep going.
There is nothing to fear.
The lamps are glowing.

Peace is coming.
We are not lost.
Our hearts are glowing.
Despite the ground’s frost.

This is our Advent.
Adventus in Latin ,arrival in English, Advent.

…..

The wolf with the lamb
The leopard with the young goat
This is now Advent

See Isaiah 11 : 1-10
