An Advent/Christmas Message from Fr. John:

“They that hope in the Lord will renew their strength, they will soar as with eagles’ wings.” –Isaiah 40:31

 Many of us feel very tired and exhausted as we try to push ourselves through various Christmas activities. You are asking God for the strength to go on. However, the Lord promises us not just more strength, but His strength. We can share in the infinite strength of the almighty God, Who created the heavens and the earth. Therefore, don’t just ask God for more strength, but “draw your strength from the Lord and His mighty power” (Ephesians 6:10). We can actually be motivated by the strength and energy of God Himself.

This Advent prepares us to receive and give the Lord’s Christmas present, that is, the gift of God’s very own strength. Therefore, let us draw our strength from the Lord, and find in the Lord all we need.

Fr. John Van Hees, Pastor
