Summary
Isaiah 25: "The Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces."
We face suffering in this world; trials and hardships and pain that can leave us feeling so alone.
In Advent we wait to celebrate Jesus coming to us in the Incarnation, and for him to come at the end of time, when he will definitively wipe away all tears.
But he also comes to us today. Wherever we are, whatever we're feeling; he gently comes near to us and wipes away our tears. When we cry out to God, he hears us. He sees our suffering. He does not pass by or overlook us. Whether we're publicly begging for him or privately weeping to him, each day can be a mini Advent in our hearts, welcoming the Savior who comes to us.
Our hope is sure. The Lord comes to comfort us, and we can experience that breakthrough in prayer, even today.
