In these darkest days of the year, the shortest days, we begin our Advent watch. We light Advent candles and recall the Lord's endless desire to come to us. We recall our desperate need for Him, our only Hope and Deepest Desire. And so, we will try to make more room for Christ in these Advent days, a place in our hearts, in our community where Hope can grow and flourish, as He did in the secret darkness of Mary's womb.
