On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of wine on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wine on the lees refined. And he will destroy on this mountain the covering that is cast over all peoples, the veil that is spread over all nations. he will swallow death up forever, and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth; for the Lord has spoken.

It will be said on that day, "Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation."

Isaiah 25:6-9, from the reading for March 29th.

We are halfway to Pascha (HOORAY!) and this is a beautiful reminder of what we have to look forward to.
