In these last days before Christmas, the rush to get everything done is counter to the slow and steady wait for the King. Hurry is incompatible with love. It prevents the very moments we treasure in the Christmas season. How can you allow for more moments of magic this season by intentionally slowing down instead of getting caught up in the hustle?

This year, perhaps more than any other, we have learned what it’s like to come face-to-face with the unexpected. But there is one lesson we might want to take with us: we must make room for the unexpected and unknown. When we do, we are left open to the possibility of something changing our lives in a positive way.

The holiday season brings a sense of expectation, even for those who are not religious or do not have faith. This deep sense of longing is universal and incredibly human. It is a longing for God. During Advent, we wait, knowing that our satisfaction is not far off, but also that we will never be fully satisfied this side of heaven.
