He has been tugging at my heart for so many years, urging me in so many ways to give myself wholly to Him, to give all and refuse Him nothing. I dread lest now I shall again refuse Him – perhaps it is the last time He will ask me to do what He wants.
COMMENT: Perhaps this will be our last Advent. Perhaps some of us will not even live to see Christmas – we do not know the hour of our death. Jesus is always tugging at our hearts, and waiting for us to repay His great love with our own small love. Advent is a time of spiritual preparation. Let us not waste it.

Great reminders in the passages above. The present moment is the time to do God’s will, to help one another, say what kind words we know we should say to those we love, and really to anyone., to do what we know is the right and compassionate thing to do, to give all the glory to God that we can, and to show gratitude to Him and others for all they have bestowed on us.
A fervent Advent to all! Let us live this season so as to make a difference in our own life and in the lives of others.
