This episode focuses on how we can enter into the season by taking an introspective look at our lives and what can slow the coming of the Lord in our lies: Self-reliance and independence from GodWhat have we allowed to grow in the gardens of our hearts that crowds out the LordWhat idols have we madeWhat are we building that keep us from the LordDo our long-term plans in life include the LordReading from Isaiah CH 2The Lord’s Day of Judgment on Pride6 You have abandoned your people,the house of Jacob!Because they are filled with diviners,and soothsayers, like the Philistines;with foreigners they clasp hands.7 Their land is full of silver and gold,there is no end to their treasures;Their land is full of horses,there is no end to their chariots.8 Their land is full of idols;they bow down to the works of their hands,what their fingers have made.9 So all shall be abased,each one brought low.Do not pardon them!10 Get behind the rocks,hide in the dust,From the terror of the LORDand the splendor of his majesty!11 The eyes of human pride shall be lowered,the arrogance of mortals shall be abased,and the LORD alone will be exalted, on that day.12 For the LORD of hosts will have his dayagainst all that is proud and arrogant,against all that is high, and it will be brought low;13 Yes, against all the cedars of Lebanonand against all the oaks of Bashan,14 Against all the lofty mountainsand all the high hills,15 Against every lofty towerand every fortified wall,16 Against all the ships of Tarshishand all stately vessels.17 Then human pride shall be abased,the arrogance of mortals brought low,And the LORD alone will be exalted on that day.18 The idols will vanish completely.19 People will go into caves in the rocksand into holes in the earth,At the terror of the LORDand the splendor of his majesty,as he rises to overawe the earth.20 On that day people shall throw to moles and batstheir idols of silver and their idols of goldwhich they made for themselves to worship.21 And they shall go into caverns in the rocksand into crevices in the cliffs,At the terror of the LORDand the splendor of his majesty,as he rises to overawe the earth.22 As for you, stop worrying about mortals,in whose nostrils is but a breath;for of what worth are they?Topics: Scripture, Bible, Advent Reflection, Relationship with Jesus,Send us a textSupport the show
