On Friday, December 20, 2024 I spent an hour on my Art Pastor Live stream and drew this image. It is a contemplative art piece that explores the themes of the texts for the fourth Sunday of Advent.
Love and Life | Advent 4 | Visual Lectionary Downloads for December 22, 2024
We come to the fourth and final week of Advent. This week we celebrate love and life. Two pregnant women meet and rejoice in the life that is growing in their wombs. Elizabeth’s child reminds us of the matriarch Sarah and her son Isaac, when God gave a child to a woman in her old age. Mary’s child reminds us that God can bring life out of nothing, through the Spirit, just like God did in the first verses of Genesis. Mary sings to God and reminds us that God’s love is for all people, bringing down the arrogant oppressors and uplifting the humbled and oppressed.
Light the fourth candle this week and rejoice in the love and life that comes from God.
