A Place on God’s Tree

This reflection draws us into the beauty of Advent, inviting us to slow down and see the unfolding of God’s plan throughout history. From the ancient prophecies of Isaiah to the coming of the Messiah, we are reminded of the faithfulness of God and His promise to all people. Through the imagery of the root and the branch, and the bold faith of a Roman centurion, Father Luke shows us how Jesus gathers the nations and opens His family to everyone. In Him, each of us has a place on His tree of life and promise, and we are called to trust in God’s grace as we walk this Advent journey.
