For Christians, today is the Third Sunday of Advent… and we are getting ready for the Christmas happening. The days pass by swiftly and wonder things are nearer to us now. The hopeful waiting continues as the excitement gently mounts…<\/p>\n
And all this while the rest of life continues routinely.<\/p>\n
“Routine” could be more of an attitude than\u00a0the real state of things. And when we equate “routine” to mean ordinary and boring and everyday sort of duties then the attitude makes dull what could otherwise be enjoyable.<\/p>\n
Advent\u00a0 connects with hope and hope can add excitement into\u00a0 seemingly boring “routine”.<\/p>\n
Our \u00a0job, managing a home,\u00a0 studies\/college life\u00a0 and similar things could be boring routine or enjoyable routine…<\/p>\n
Depends on us, of course.<\/p>\n
Advent is a time to wake up to the possibility that life can also be enjoyable routine<\/p>\n
We are hopeful and excited because something wondrous is going to happen…..<\/p>\n
More Advent musings ….quite in keeping with the times….<\/p>\n

That’s like a wake-up call for those of us whose lives have been dulled by the not-so-pleasant and the sometime tragic of routine life….<\/p>\n
There is a breakthrough in the clouds of distress and unknowing….. and an unimaginable comforting grace is gently lighting up the world…..<\/p>\n
Grace and blessing because the Lord is coming…. the Lord is near….<\/p>\n
Just about two weeks for Christmas!<\/p>\n
Growing glowing peace and goodwill wishes to you..<\/p>\n
Take care. love, Terry<\/p>\n
