I Prepare To Welcome The Christ Within.
On the first Noel, Mary and Joseph demonstrated their willingness to journey forth in faithful love. Under arduous circumstances, two good parents brought forth and nurtured a great light into the darkness of a struggling world. On Christmas Eve, I affirm the original blessing of all people, the indwelling Christ. My Advent journey has guided me as I have grown in faith, wrapped myself in peace, deepened in love, and delighted in joy. I have prepared for a wondrous arrival throughout the Advent season, and now the moment is here—the Christ is about to be born anew. As the darkness vanishes before the flickering light of a candle, the birth of the Christ drives out the darkness of the world.
Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed.—Luke 1:48
