Let us prepare to rediscover the value of waiting this Advent
To look forward to the coming of Christ, to want to meet Him when He returns, we have to appreciate what He did for us the first time round. We have to look with love and tenderness on the Crib. We have to wonder at the fact God loves us so much that He became this small and this vulnerable. We have to encounter the overwhelming love of Christ on the Cross. He suffered all this for my sake. Someone – God – loves me this much.
