Advent represents a time of preparation.
Not just preparation for the Celebration of Jesus birth,
but preparation of the heart for his return.
I intend to challenge myself this year with a commitment to prayer, focused meditation and action each day of this advent season. It is a fast of sorts. A fast from the commercialism of the season by changing my focus (as cliche as it sounds) to the reason for the Season.
I will post my daily challenge in case anyone wants to join me in this fast.
