Phillips: God with us

Feast of Martin, Monk, Bishop of Tours, 397
Meditation:
And this was [John’s] message: “After me will come one more powerful than I, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
—Mark 1:7-8 (NIV)

Quotation:
We rejoice in the fact that God has actually been here—and that is one half of the meaning of Advent.
... J. B. Phillips (1906-1982), Good News: Thoughts on God and Man, New York: Macmillan, 1963, p.158 (see the book)
See also Mark 1:7-8; Isa. 7:14; 9:6; Mark 13:34-37; Luke 2:20

Quiet time reflection:
Lord, You are the true man.
