“Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.” Mk. 9:50b
Welcome to the third week of Advent!
Time to prepare our hearts for Jesus’ birth.
This week: JOY
Read: Luke 3:7-18
Ponder: Our repose is to rejoice in the infinite happingess of God and, on a lower scale, in our own crosses and to desire more of them, for in them we have the privilege of imitating him and proving our love, and there is nothing dearer to the heart that loves. We shall never lack either this happiness, nor God nor the Cross.
-Charles de Foucauld
