Give Glory to God, Advent has begun! Once again, throughout the season of Advent, I will provide the daily readings and a brief reflection on those readings. That reflection may be something I noticed on or toward which we can work, or it might be something I found to be worthy of deeper consideration to ponder through our day.
The main purpose of these reflections is to bring "us" closer to Christ, prepare us for a holier Christmas, and to advance us on our spiritual journey. While I got a number of encouraging comments from last year's endeavor, I suspect that the person among "us" who got the most out of these reflections was "me." Taking the time to read the readings, ponder them, find something to grasp, and keep the discipline to write it up, made for a blessed way to prepare myself for Christmas.
In Him,
