Vocation Meditation - Dec. 2
1st Sunday of Advent
Come let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob
That he may teach us his ways
That we may walk in his paths
What do I need to enjoy a fruitful Advent? A quiet, attentive heart, ready to listen to God's word within me; a willingness to be surprised by God; a profound trust that allows God to light up my heart with burning love; a firm resolve to 'keep awake' and not miss the coming of the Lord. Resolution: My vocation is to walk in Christ as a light to the world.
