Hare: the light of Christ

Tuesday, November 30, 2021
    Feast of Andrew the Apostle
Meditation:
    Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
    —Luke 2:29-32 (KJV)
Quotation:
    In darkness there is no choice. It is light that enables us to see the differences between things; and it is Christ who gives us light.
