December 7, 2021THE ADVENT SEASON
As a society, we perpetuate the theme of commercialism at this time of the year: Are the gifts purchased? Who’s ‘hosting’ this year? What are we going to eat? Without a steadfast focus, our planning overshadows the true, illuminating presence of Christ. The Advent Season, with its culmination at Christmas provides an annual reminder that He was born a man to touch the eyes of the blind, so that we all may see. Prince of Light, open our hearts and help us to focus on You.
