Advent
Advent is a period of spiritual preparation in which many Christians make themselves ready for the coming, or birth of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Celebrating Advent typically involves a season of prayer, fasting, and repentance, followed by anticipation, hope, and joy. And great music.
Many Christians celebrate Advent not only by thanking God for Christ’s first coming to Earth as a baby, but also for his presence among us today through the Holy Spirit, and in preparation and anticipation of his final coming at the end of the age.
Today is the First Sunday of Advent.
This certainly is a beautiful time for us to hear again the story of the birth of our precious baby Jesus!
God bless you and Aunt Dot!
Love and Hugs,
Yes it is.
