The coming of Christ, which we are celebrating on this seventh day of Christmas, is our cause for rejoicing at all times. Mary's song of praise in Luke 1 talks about two specific reasons to celebrate Christ. He has shown mercy on all those who trust him. He is the one who rearranges power structures of this world. Our passage in Isaiah 60 proclaims the same truths.
Writing in haste, may the Lord bless the reading of his word. May he convict us of our failure to show mercy. May he work according to his good pleasure and will in this world, humbling the lofty and exalting the humble.
