It's Almost Time

 Something incredibly epic is in motion.

Angel visits with shocking messages to Zacharias, to Mary, to Joseph.  Two miraculous pregnancies; one in old age, one in a virgin.  The census prompting mass movements of people, getting them into position.  Prophecies given and fulfilled around John's miraculous birth, driving anticipation and speculation through the roof, far and wide.  Spirit-driven praise and prophecy from Zacharias, Elizabeth, and Mary.  A star in motion.  Important men from the east investing in a long journey to Israel.  Simeon told by the Holy Spirit that the Savior's coming in his lifetime.  Something huge was most definitely underway.  And it was almost time.

In this season, we are often zoomed in on the manger, but today I am in awe of the magnitude of of OPERATION SAVIOR ON THE WAY.

Consider this your invitation to pause and ponder, in wonder and anticipation.

That your heart would welcome Him,

Carol
