The weary world rejoices - these words from the familiar Christmas hymn are ones I've held close in recent years. I gather strength from this reminder, this command from scripture to rejoice. Rejoice now, it tells me. For it's not "the redeemed world rejoices" but the weary world who does the rejoicing, the world weary in waiting. Weary from what seems like a prolonged coming, a prolonged advent.
Much like Abraham's wife, Sarah...
