A Franciscan Heart In the World

When Hope is Planted


Listen Later

Today’s Advent reflection turns to Isaiah’s promise that “the desert and the parched land will exult.”
We meet Evelyn, a widow standing at the window of her winter garden — a place that looks finished, bare, and cold. But with one small act of kindness, she discovers what Isaiah has always taught: God begins new life long before we cansee it.

This episode is for anyone carrying quietgrief, for anyone who feels they’re in a season of waiting, or for anyone who wonders if hope is still possible.
It’s a reminder that God works beneath the frost… that love is still stirring…and that what looks barren is never the end of the story.
