In Advent we anticipate not only the birth of Christ but also his coming into each person’s heart and his return to reign. Zechariah, one of Israel’s prophets, foresaw that future day when Messiah will set things right. “ ‘Shout and be glad, Daughter Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you,’ declares the Lord” (2:10). The Lord will signal for Israel’s children and gather them in. He will redeem them; they will remember him, and they will return (10:8-9).
