(Church) New Year's Eve
Tonight is the last night in the church year; tomorrow begins Advent.
Advent is a reflective, penitential season, but it is different in tone from Lent: our reflection is to bring us into a heightened awareness of our surroundings. We are preparing for the return of Christ.
Are we ready? Do we want God's rule to come and set right all injustice? Are we ready to greet and celebrate his arrival, or do we wish he just wouldn't bother?
