And what might be God’s response to our plea of these last days of Advent, represented by our O antiphons?

Ancient tradition holds that when one takes the first letter of each of these ancient titles from the prophet Isaiah, the letters constitute the acrostic, “Ero Cras“, which is Latin meaning

“Tomorrow, I will come”

 

May we hear this as God’s response to our Advent prayers, through Christ Jesus, our Emmanuel.
