Let me hear what God the Lord will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, to his faithful, to those who turn to him in their hearts. Surely his salvation is at hand for those who fear him, that his glory may dwell in our land. Psalm 85:8,9
The second Advent candle, the peace candle, is lit in the company of that most disruptive of prophets, John the Baptist. It occurs to me that true peace can only be brought about by disruption of the way things are, as valleys are filled and mountains laid low.
