Psalm 71:5
You are my hope, Lord; my trust, God, from my youth.

When things are going well…let’s face it…we aren’t relying on God or even thinking much about God. We pretty much think we can do it all on our own. It’s only when things go awry…not according to our plans…when we slip and fall…when we get hit with pain and suffering…that we turn to God. And when those times have come in my life…a Higher Power has always gotten me through. A Deeper Mystery has always held me and carried me. In this Advent time…why not open ourselves more to this Loving God? Why not empty ourselves of our endless egocentric desires…so that there is an open space for God to enter and fill by Christmas morning? More of God’s Presence in our hearts…would be the best Present we could possibly receive.
