Isaiah 40:25-31; Psalm 103 O Bless the Lord my soul; Mt 11:28-30
"The Purpose of the Church's year is continually to rehearse her great history of memories, to awaken the heart's memory so it can discern the star of hope. It is the beautiful task of Advent to awaken in all of us, memories of goodness and thus to open doors of hope."
As the Prophet Isaiah speaks in 40:25-31, "those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength, they will soar as with eagle's wings; they will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint."
As Jesus reminds us in the gospel, in him we shall find rest for ourselves. Every time we enter into the memories of God's past victories, we are reminded of how grace works through the human heart. In this memory our restlessness finds rest, for in every memory of grace there we encounter Christ face to face.
