Today’s Reflection: First Advent
As the days grow shorter and the nights become colder,
we look for signs of hope during this Advent Season.
There is hope in the evergreens that brave the snow.
There is hope in children’s hearts as they look forward to Christmas.
There is hope as more candles are lit on the Advent Wreath.
But the greatest hope is the promise: “You are to conceive
and bear a son and you are to name him Jesus. He will be
great and be called Son of the Most High.” – Advent Reflection

Today’s Reflection: Deep Listening
God of silence and God of all sound, help me to listen.
Help me to do the deep listening to the sounds of my soul,
waiting to hear your soft voice calling me deeper into you.
Give me attentive ears that begin to separate the noise from the sounds that are you;
You who have been speaking to me and through me my whole life, for so long that you can seem like background noise.
Today help me hear you anew. – Author unknown

Today’s Reflection: There are some souls on earth
Which seek in vain for happiness,
But for me, it’s just the opposite.
Joy is in my heart.
This joy is not ephemeral.
I possess it forever.
Like the springtime rose, It smiles at me every day. — St. Therese of Lisieux, French Carmelite (1873–1897)

Lord Jesus, help me to recognize the needs of my brothers and sisters, and offer them whatever I can. May I be “one with the least” and stand up for the marginalized, and in doing so, serve you. Amen. —Jesuit Prayer team
