The Importance of Advent

Advent: the time of the Church Year when we remember the birth of God in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. Advent is the time when we remember Jesus’ birth, in that manger, a feeding trough, who came to “feed” the world with God’s love; which Jesus did throughout His life, especially on His Cross. Advent is also about expectantly looking forward to Jesus coming again as King of kings and Lord of lords, when He will bring the fullness of God’s love to the world, for all people; and, all means all! In the meantime, as disciples of Jesus, The Christ, called, equipped, and empowered by God’s Holy Spirit, what can we do to live, share, and “feed” the world with God’s love. How can we partner with God to change our world - to be a world filled with more love? I welcome your thoughts on how we can do that……
