Daniel 7:2-14. Give glory and eternal praise to him! – Daniel 3:75-81. Luke 21:29-33.
When fig trees lose their winter grey and swell with early greening,with hope of flower and fruit,our hearts will dream of summer.That’s how your winter ended, Lord,and summer stole in early.The fig tree died providing wood on which you hung while fruiting.So may we read the signs today that speak of death and rising,and find in you the tender fruit of our beset world’s saving.
