Hope of All the Earth: An Advent Devotional

Advent can be a difficult time of year, especially for those in the deepest and darkest throes of waiting for things to get better. Yet we know that the message of Advent is ultimately hope for the hopeless, peace in the chaos, joy for the joyless, and love for the unloved. The darkness has not overcome the light of Christ, so we rejoice even as we wait for all to be restored and made new. Advent reminds us that Jesus is the true Hope of All the Earth.
