Yesterday our great granddaughter announced to me that “Christmas is 3 days away”! She was very excited.
I asked how she knew that and she said she had opened her calendar.
Advent. The looking forward to or anticipation of the birth of Christ.
Did you notice that “advent” is the root word for adventure? And what a heavenly adventure it was.
Yesterday we were together with family; the rest of them will be arriving today. I’m so excited for this time to spend with them.
Thinking of our Heavenly Father and how He must feel as He brings each of us to mind. His love is overwhelming, His peace reassuring and His comfort beyond comparing!
I can hear Him saying:
“I love you with an everlasting love” Jeremiah 31:3
“My peace I give to you; peace, be still.” John 14:27
“I will send the Comforter that will abide with you forever” John 14:16
“Let my joy be your strength” Nehemiah 8:10
” I know the thoughts I have for you; thoughts of peace”. Jeremiah 29:11-13
Yes, in the quiet of my morning I can hear my Father speaking to me and He’s speaking to you as well. Enjoy your time with Him. Each day is an amazing advent-ure!
