Advent Art 8- Joy: The Season of Restoration

They will rebuild the ancient ruins
    and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities
    that have been devastated for generations. - Isaiah 61:1-4

Throughout Our history destruction and devastation have walked alongside us and
long periods of peace seem elusive.
Even our hearts have felt ruin.

Not coincidental, one of the first things Jesus spoke about in synagogue was Isaiah 61 and how He fulfilled it.
He had come to restore.
He had come to bring Peace.
He would rebuild.
And He starts with the human heart.
