I'm curious about the turn...what was in your heart when you wrote that?
i was reading isaiah 9. verse 9:13 specifically for that line. i was also thinking about John the Baptist preparing the way for Jesus. will my heart be prepared for his coming... specifically coming again. that's reflected in the meaning of 'advent coming.' advent means arrival or coming.
NIV talked of returning and I wasn't sure of the connection and then I went to NAS and it had the word TURN and I got it. Thank you for sharing that. It's a beautiful poem.
I tried to comment on your blog, but I couldn't see the weird letters to be able to confirm I was a person... your husband is awesome!
