First Week of Advent - Devotion One
Movement 2: Isaiah 40:1–3
Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, “Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.”

I hear that God is saying, "Encourage my people. In the middle of their discouragement, give them courage. Speak tenderly to them. Speak to their hearts. - so beautiful
