Advent 27- Watchman- Awake!

Bible Marginalia Series-#224
Matthew 25
and (Matthew 24:36-41)
"But concerning that day and hour
 no one knows, not even the angels of heaven,
 not the Son, but the Father only."
I have often wondered if this is the
 only thing that Jesus does not know.

He certainly lived His life 
under the shadow of His own end.
And we would have to sit in the 
doom and gloom of a dismal eternity 
if it were not for the babe in the manger.
Who came in love FOR ME,
died and ROSE AGAIN,
FOR ME.
What hope this birth of a Savior brings,
and with it the reminder-
of what ADVENT preparation really is...
preparing for His return.
Oh, give thanks 
that we have that gift to celebrate.

Supplies:
Illustrated Faith Washi tape and paper clip
Colored pencils
Fine-point Sharpie pen
Alpha Letters
Tim Holtz Vial labels
