Advent|4 Reflections
As the season of Advent dawns and moves toward Christmas, there is much upon which to reflect. This time of preparation, during four December weeks of journeying toward the Christmas moment is a blessed time. It can also be fraught with the pressures to consume and perform. I offer, therefore, in this Advent season, four brief reflections that begin with each weekly Advent theme: hope, peace, joy, and love. May their unfolding lead you to feel gratitude for yourself as a blessing and, in turn, recognise the same in the Other.
