Advent (340)
  1. As we hear what God is doing, we begin to realize how true freedom and joy in this life are not about managing our reality but, like Joseph, about faithfully receiving what God is doing.
  2. When God is truly present among us, how can we not, in turn, respond with love for Him?
  3. Seek moments of silence, and use them to listen and ponder.
  4. Christianity doesn’t start with our speculation about God. It starts with God’s self-revelation.
  5. There is a hiddenness to the splendor of the Messianic reign and rule of God for now that will only be seen fully on the final day.
  6. Knowing the coming Judge as the one who endured for me changes the waiting of endurance into, indeed, a “we can hardly stand the wait.”
  7. Faint of heart or strong, Advent finds us all in a world that shakes our faith and drives us to wonder about the work and promises of this God who claims to love us.
