Advent Meditation: Wednesday, December 25, 2019

By Cynthia Briggs Kittredge

Dec 1, 2019

Psalm 72, 111, 113 •  2 Samuel 7:1-17  •  Luke 1:39-48a(48b-56) “And it came to pass in those days.” Here begins the first, and for a long time the only, passage of scripture I had ever known by heart, thanks to my starring role as narrator in the Christmas pageant as a child. On first […]

Psalm 55, 138, 139:1-17(18-23) •  Zechariah 8:9-17  •  Matthew 25:31-46 “Do not be afraid, but let your hands be strong.” It was six years ago that I was with my priest in my car. We pulled in from lunch where we explored what God was doing in my life. She brought up the priesthood. “I […]
