#Advent 1: A shoot from the stump of Jesse...

It's the first day of Advent! I wonder if I'll manage to stick to my plan for Advent this year - to take an Advent Photo each day?

I have to confess to have started in what might be a muddled way, using Jesse tree readings rather than the liturgical ones for the day... but maybe that's what I'll stick with!

The Jesse Tree reading for today then...

"A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse;
from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.
The Spirit of the Lord will test upon him...

In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his resting place will be glorious."

Isaiah 11:1-10
