The first Sunday of Advent is here, and with it comes a season of watchfulness and hope. In a world that often feels hectic and heavy, Advent invites us to lift our eyes and remember that God is drawing near.
Today we light the first candle on the Advent wreath, a small flame reminding us that hope begins quietly: one moment of trust, one step toward Christ at a time. The Lord who came in Bethlehem and who will come again is also coming into our lives right now, in ways both gentle and powerful.
As this season begins, let your heart be ready. What is one way you can make room for Jesus to enter more deeply into your life this Advent?
