Commentary, Psalm 126, Rolf Jacobson, Preaching This Week,
WorkingPreacher.org, 2009.
 | "The Advent people who approach Christmas recall
God's restorative acts in the past. They recall the testimony of the
nations to God's deliverance. They recall their own joy. And they
know that until the Son of God comes again, we will be in constant
and everlasting need of God's continued restoration." |

dreamers, those whose lives are shaped not by the limits of our
experiences but by the hidden reality of what God has already
declared will be." |

Abstract) |

"In
Praise and Thanksgiving," Patrick D. Miller, Jr., Princeton
Theological School. Theology Today, 1988.
| "In a world that assumes the
status is quo, that things have to be the way they are and that we
must not assume too much about improving them, the doxologies of
God's people are fundamental indicators that wonders have not
ceased, that possibilities not yet dreamt of will happen, and that
hope is an authentic stance." |

Revd Desmond M Tutu, Human Rights Day, March 21, 1995, St George's
Cathedral, Cape Town.

we are free and wonderfully it is not just blacks who have become free.
We are free, all of us, black and white together. We have been
transformed. We have been transfigured. The repulsive caterpillar has
become a gorgeous butterfly of many colours." |
