Reflection to Begin Advent: Jesus Came

 

We often think about the second coming as some distant, mysterious event. It's a good thing to pause and reflect on the fact that, at one point the coming of Christ was in the very same perspective for generations of people. God chose you to live in the times following the Incarnation, the singular most transformative and important event in human history. God entered into the world to teach how to love, how to sacrifice and how to live a meaningful fulfilled life in union with him. God chose to nourish the human race with his very self, his body blood soul and divinity in the most holy eucharist. And you're here to live the experience of God coming into the world, into your world, transforming it, filling it with the light of his radiant love, giving it meaning beyond your wildest dreams. This advent, let Jesus once again enter your world. Invite him, treasure him and let him lead you. And your life will be full of meaning, joy and hope unto blessed eternity. God wants to fill your life with the radiant beautiful light of his love, he only asks that you open the door.
