Bless the Advent We Actually Have by Kat Bowler
Here we are at the precipice of Christmas…The busyness. The hustle. The last-minute-wrapping. The beauty of the first snowfall (or at least the cinematic version on the Hallmark Channel). The delight of Christmas lights…We dream of creating a glistening Christmas for our families or friends that makes us tired even before we’re finished imagining it.
What if we could take all those ideals and see what’s underneath, at the root of it all? It’s our hopes for peace and joy and love for ourselves, our people, and for our world. And we say, God, show us again how this goes. How do we bless the Christmas we actually have? Perhaps we can practice blessing our actual lives together this Advent.
November 29 – Bless this Hope-Filled Advent
