December 8
“The exhortation to be watchful resounds many times in the liturgy, especially in Advent, a season of preparation not only for Christmas, but also for Christ’s definitive and glorious coming at the end of time. It therefore has a distinctly eschatological meaning and invites the believer to spend every day and every moment in the presence of the One ‘who is and who was and who is come’ (Revelation 1:4), to whom the future of the world and of man belongs. This is Christian hope!”
-Pope St. John Paul II
Today's Reflection:
This Advent, take time out of the hustle and bustle for adoration. Look at Him in His beautiful Eucharistic disguise and let your hope, the one "who is and who was and who is come" look at you.
