A vigilant awaiting of the coming of Christ

December 15

“The liturgy of Advent… helps us to understand fully the value and meaning of the mystery of Christmas. It is not just about commemorating the historical event, which occurred some 2,000 years ago in a little village of Judea. Instead, it is necessary to understand that the whole of our life must be an ‘advent,’ a vigilant awaiting of the final coming of Christ.”

-Pope St. John Paul II

Today’s Reflection:

What is one practice from this Advent that you can incorporate into your life for the rest of the year so that your whole life becomes a vigilant awaiting of Christ’s coming?
