The Meaning of Advent

Advent is a call to reach out to love and remember those who live their lives on the edge and cannot find their way. It is a call to care for those who live with anxiety and despair and a reminder to reach out with compassion. It is a time to love in all of our actions, for there is only faith in the unforseen.
The Spirit is a continuous series of challanges so we may better understand that we need to live as never before. I will truly never understand why some folks are blessed with more than others, many hearts know such pain but no one will truly make peace with the unfairness until they find a way through words that are within the heart and soul. It often takes a moment of intimacy or grief to reveal itself from within.
This is the very reason the night is called "Holy". It took humankind to recognize beyond the hardships and strife that the Soul is present and it then is truly revealed.
The hours of the day represent our lives and if one lets opportunities slip away, then the days of our lives also slip by. Beauty is ours to bestow, for we are truly the light of the world.
