THE ADVENT SEASON continues today as we light the
second candle on the Advent wreath, the candle of preparation. As it is written in the book of the
words of Isaiah the prophet, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. Every valley shall be
filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall
become straight, and the rough places shall become level ways, and all flesh
shall see the salvation of God.’ ”
Luke 3:4-6
