Advent Word: Restore
On the 22nd day of Advent the Advent Word is 'restore'. I am enjoying looking at this image of a peaceful path and summer greenery. The weather in the UK has been mostly dark and wet during this Advent season. I look forward to summer and the chance to walk on dry paths again. Meanwhile, I am looking forward to the celebration of Christmas. Christmas can be very busy, but it can also be restorative, a time to renew relationships, take a break and enjoy a time of rest and refreshment. The word 'restore' makes me think of Psalm 23 about the divine 'good shephered'. Here are the first 3 verses: "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside still waters; he retores my soul. He leads me in right paths for his name's sake." Psalm 23: 1 - 4 NRSV I hope all who read this will find some way to be restored today, even if you are busy. Image Credit: dor619 on Flic...
