During Advent, we prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus — in the past at His birth, in the present through worship and the sacraments, and in the future when He returns. Each candle on the Advent wreath reminds us of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love, leading to the Christ Candle on Christmas Eve. This season calls us to live with faith and readiness, growing closer to Jesus each day so that when He comes again, we’ll be ready to welcome Him with joy.
The message ends with the poem “’Twas the Night Jesus Came Back” which reminds us not to wait until it’s too late — we should live with faith, kindness, and readiness now.
