Homélie de l'Année A #Elisabeth

On this second Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A), the figure of John the Baptist invites us to recognize in Jesus the true Lamb of God. Faithful to his mission prophesied by Isaiah, John presents to the world the One who transcends history: the eternal Word incarnate, the only Son of the Father and the universal Savior.

Waiting is a path that demands patience and perseverance. When we know the value of the person or thing awaited, our hearts rejoice constantly with the desire to see the promises fulfilled. This is the very reason for our wonder in waiting on this third Sunday of Advent.
