“It is these worldly people, devoid of the Spirit, who are causing divisions. But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit; keep yourselves in the love of God; look forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.” Jude 19-21
As we get closer to Christmas, so much of our society is mainly concerned about the material aspects of this time. For a long time, at least in the U.S., we have had our fair share of ads letting us know that until we buy the latest new thing, our life will be less than perfect. We know that this isn’t true, however, the daily message of buy-buy can weigh us down and get us off of our center.
I pray that during this Advent season you may continue with your spiritual practices of prayer, Bible study, and reflection to keep yourselves focused on where the Holy Spirit may be taking you. May there be little or no division in your life about what is really important at this time and all of your life. What we buy today is only short term, only God’s love will last for eternity. Blessings on your Advent pilgrimage! Vernon T.
