Advent comes from a Latin word that means \u201ccoming,\u201d and at this time of year it refers to the coming of Christ. It\u2019s a way of waiting spiritually, of looking forward to Christmas and all that Christmas promises.<\/p>\n

There is a paradox inherent in the Advent season. Why wait for something that\u2019s already here? Christ has<\/em> come. Christ is<\/em> among us. But then, are there not prayers that are still unanswered and hopes we still yearn for?<\/p>\n

This is the season to hold on to them, every one of them.<\/p>\n

1)\u00a0 Light a candle<\/strong>.
\nCreate an Advent wreath with four candles and some greenery. Light each candle on the Sundays of Advent so that by the end you\u2019ll have all four illuminated. You can put one red candle at the center for Christmas Eve.<\/p>\n

But even without a wreath, put candles in your windows or on a table or by your bedside. They still speak of your hopes and expectation. You are anticipating the Light of the World coming.<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0 Set up an Advent calendar.<\/strong>
\nOpen a window in the calendar each day. The one I had as a child showed a snow-covered village with a different scene inside each window. Of course our favorite window came up at the end. But no peeking in advance.<\/p>\n

Advent is about waiting. Hopefully, expectantly, joyfully.<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0 Read an Advent devotional every day.<\/strong>
\nI would recommend any of the daily devotions on this website. Read a Bible verse, look for an inspirational quote, say a prayer.<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0 Pray a carol.<\/strong>
\nThis time of year it\u2019s hard to avoid Christmas carols<\/a>. You can hear them in the background when shopping at the mall or the grocery store, they drop out of phones (sometimes as someone\u2019s ringing tone), the next-door-neighbor is practicing them on the piano, the radio just played one.<\/p>\n

Put the words in your head and use a phrase or two as a prayer. \u201cAll is calm, all is bright,\u201d there\u2019s a prayer that needs answering. \u201cSleep in heavenly peace\u2026\u201d don\u2019t we all wish that? \u201cJoy to the world!\u201d yes, now! \u201cO Come all ye faithful\u2026\u201d Yes, come into our world now!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all a way to welcome Christmas into your heart right now. Advent means coming. Advent is here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
