Advent

Coming or arrival. This is how the dictionary defines the word advent. It’s the anticipation of the coming king. Throughout scripture we encounter stories about how God made his appearance known in our world. Think the Garden, Noah, Moses, every time an angel steps into our realm with a messsage, and it culminates in the coming of the king, Jesus Christ. What a sacrifice that God makes to enter into our space and time and to provide a way for us to enter into his. It truly is the most wonderful time of the year.
