From Magnificat magazine:
It is natural for travelers to hasten toward their native land, and natural too that they should have trouble on the way and safety at home. So let us who are on the way to it hasten toward our native land; for our whole life is like a single day’s journey.
And therefore let us devote ourselves to divine rather than human affairs, and like exiles be always sighing for our native land and longing for it (St. Columban, d. 615).
My Advent goal for today is to worry less and to love more.
Our Lord is here. He is among us and within us!
Today may we be present to Him and to His presence in our family. Above all, may we grow in love!
Great post. 🙂 Thanks for the beautiful reminder.
