Reflection: Michelangelo’s Isaiah, painted on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, portrays the prophet who foretold the coming of Christ: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel” (Isaiah 7:14). Isaiah’s prophecy reveals the God of the impossible—a virgin mother, a divine Savior, and a world redeemed by love.
Advent invites us to trust in a God who makes the impossible possible. We are called to believe in the promises of a God whose power knows no limits. What impossibilities in your life are you hesitant to bring before Him?
Reflect on the miraculous story of salvation, where a virgin bore a child and God became man. Entrust your fears and uncertainties to God, and watch his grace work wonders in your life.
