Advent Calendar for the Spiritual But Not Religious Boomer- Advent is a time of preparation for Christmas. This years Devotional is based on Christmas/Advent Carols. This Carol is from Scotland. December 5, 2012 Fourth Day of Advent To That Night In Bethlehem (Traditional Scotish Carol) Don oíche úd i mBeithil, beidh tagairt ar ghrian go brách Don oíche úd i mBeithil, go dtáinig an Briathar slán Tá gríosghrua ar spéartha, s an talamh na chlúdach bán Féach íosagán sa chléibhín, s an Mhaighdean in aoibhneas grá Ar leacain lom an tsléibhe, go nglacann na haoirí scáth Nuair in oscailt gheal na spéire, tá teachtaire Dé ar fáil Céad glóir anois don Athair, i bhFlaitheasa thuas go hard Is feasta fós ar talamh, dfheara, dea-mhéin síocháin I sing of a night in Bethlehem, A night as bright as dawn I sing of that night in Bethlehem, The night the Word was born The skies are glowing gaily, The earth in white is dressed See Jesus in the cradle, Asleep on His mothers breast And there on a lonely hillside, The shepherds bow down in fear When the heavens open brightly, And Gods message rings out so clear Glory now to the Father, In all the heavens high And peace to His friends on earth below, Is all the angels cry This Christmas Carol wishes peace on earth. What is peace? How about the absence of fear? It is the knowledge that no matter how bad things become, when everything seems spinning out of control that God can and has made everything perfectly as God intended it to be. Because we trust God there remains very little to fear about our futures as this Carol points out, because God has already taken care of it. O Glorious God, Help us to behold your power, majesty, and awe, by revealing your power and might as well as your tender mercy and care. Give us your peace that results from trusting you fully and totally, with our lives and our deaths. Amen. https://youtube/watch?v=82kPvzNDE34
