Up earlier this morning, we noticed the powerful lights of
an approaching tractor, its headlights cutting a path through the deep darkness
pre-dawn. (That sounds more impressive than it is: dawn comes late in Scotland
at this time of year!)
The tractor pulled a trailer of cow dung, intended for
fertilising, feeding one of his fields.
The farmer didn’t let the deep darkness deter him from his
work.
O come, o come Emmanuel.
Don’t let the deep darkness of this world deter any of us from venturing
forth to spread the good news, to prepare the way for others to come to Jesus,
to enrich the lives of those we meet today.
The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not
and can never overcome it. Hallelujah.
