Advent is here. This might be a trigger that gets us thinking about all there is to do this holiday season before we get to December 25. But let’s try to resist that temptation this year. Let Advent, and the Sundays we worship in it, be a time to settle us and sit with the Lord. Advent is not a time of holiday preparation, it is our spiritual preparation. We are to ready our hearts for the return of Christ. That anticipation is ours to build hope.
