waiting in hope



Aslan, the strong and noble lion, waits in anticipation at the gate. Inside, he will meet Father Christmas, and together they help the children of Narnia.




...another metaphor for waiting in hope: lighting the candle for the first week of Advent.

  7. There you are, found you again.

    I've been going to the book site where nothing much has been happening and have ignored this one because I thought you had closed it.

    That's better, hope and light for Advent, what could be more apt.
