Angels from the realms of glory,
wing your flight o’er all the earth;
ye who sang creation’s story
now proclaim Messiah’s birth.[ref]From the hymn Angels From the Realms of Glory[/ref]
What an image this Christmas season: creation being sung into being! And this same magnificent song heralds the birth of this Child. As we pass the winter solstice, the light which grows greater each day is a visible symbol of The Light of the World.[ref]Cf. John 8:12[/ref]
The story of Christ, the story of creation, they are wrapped together. So, as our Advent ends this Christmas, we can rejoice alongside creation.
All creation, join in praising
God, Spirit, & Son,
Evermore your voices raising
To the eternal Three in One.[ref]Modified from the hymn Angels From the Realms of Glory[/ref]
Today we wish you and yours a merry Christmas from all of us at EcoTheo.
