How will we prepare the way...?
The Advent season has begun for 2015... Does this mean that we rush to buy, buy, buy...for all those on our 'list' in time for Christmas? Or, does it mean that we are entering a special time of the year when we can actually "slow-down", and ponder on the truly important aspects of our lives? Especially, after having just celebrated Thanksgiving?
I invite you to take a single moment each day, from today, until Christmas Day, to breathe-in some good while reflecting on the many blessings we receive...and slow down a bit in your journey home. After all, that day will come (on its own blessed time) when we will all be one family in Christ - celebrating an endless banquet of love, joy and peace!!!
Happy Advent!
