Cusp-a point of transition, as from one historical period to the next;
the borders between the twelve astrological signs.
You are considered to be "on the cusp" if you were born
within a day or two of the beginning or end of any sign.

The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak, 1863; Albert Bierstadt

Thursday of the Third Week of Advent



Father,
creator and redeemer of mankind,
you decreed, and your Word became man,

born of the Virgin Mary.
May we come to share the divinity of Christ,
who humbled himself to share our human Nature.





O Wisdom, O holy Word of God,
you govern all creation with your strong yet tender care:
Come and show your people the way to salvation.

From Christian Prayer
