1 Advent, Year C
In Advent,
We remember the prophecies pointing to the incarnation of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the one promised.
Yet that is not all.
We look forward in hope to his second Advent, when Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, will return as he promised.
Thus,
Advent is a time of anticipation of meeting our Lord face to face. It is a time of remembrance and hope, a time of preparation for God to set things right.
Let us, then, join Christians throughout history and celebrate Advent as a penitential season, setting our hearts right to meet our coming King.
The peace of the Lord be wtih you all.
