Advent season is here. Each year of our marriage, my wife has lit a candle each advent night and led us through scripture readings about Christ’s coming. This year, my daughter is reading scripture.
I’ve received my Christmas present early. She reads prophecies from Isaiah and Jeremiah with poise and skill. My wife asks her if she has questions, and she does. They’re excellent. Is the “king” in the prophecy Jesus? Why is God mad at the people’s sacrifices? Why are the letters of “LORD” capitalized?
I had been thinking about nightly devotions. Once again, my wife took the lead. My daughter followed.
