Über diesen Titel
Reflecting on Isaiah 7:14—“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Emmanuel”—this meditation invites us to consider the long silence between God’s promise and its fulfillment. Centuries passed, kingdoms rose and fell, yet the Word of God did not fade. As the Fathers teach, God’s promises do not age like dust, but mature like wine, deepening with time.
In this reflection, Rev. Fr. Dr. Timothy (Tenny) Thomas reminds us that God’s timing is not absence, and delay is not denial. The Virgin Mary’s womb became the meeting place of all waiting and all faith, revealing that what seems delayed is often being prepared in mystery.
As we journey through the Nativity Fast, we are called to learn this quiet strength: to trust in the dark, to hold God’s word gently and steadily, and to allow His promises to ripen within us. Choose one promise—peace, mercy, or guidance—and let it become fuel for the heart, steadying us as we await Emmanuel, God with us.
