Homily from the Third Sunday of Advent.

How can we see the Lord face to face til we have faces?

We tell ourselves so many stories. Some of these stories are true and some of them are not. One challenge we have is to tell true stories...about ourselves and about the Lord. In order to be able to see the Lord face to face, we will need to know ourselves and some before God as our true selves.

Zephaniah 3:14-18
Isaiah 12:2-6
