The prophet Isaiah offers words of inspiration to a people mired in despair. It is a beautiful vision, grounded in the hopes and dreams of a people who have lived far too long in fear.

In the words of Leonard Cohen who died this week,
“Ring the bells that still can ring
forget your perfect offering
there is a crack in everything
that’s how the light gets in.”
