1st Sunday of Advent

“Jesus said to his disciples: Be watchful! Be alert!” (Mk 13:33)

 

In the Gospel of Mark on this First Sunday of Advent, Jesus calls us to wait in hope.

We need to be reminded that even in the most trying circumstances, our lives are in God’s hands. Jesus calls us to be attentive to God’s presence in our lives. When we experience hardship or other troubles in our lives, we can get the feeling that we’re on our own, and God is nowhere to be found. But the truth is that God is always present to give hope, comfort, and strength

 

The Lord has given us the desire to seek Him. May we once again, during this Advent season, reaffirm our trust in God’s loving presence.
