Today’s Reflection: Prayer for Humility
Let me have too deep a sense of humor ever to be proud.
Let me know my absurdity before I act absurdly.
Let me realize that when I am humble I am most human,
most truthful, and most worthy of your serious consideration. — Daniel Lord, SJ.

Today’s Reflection: Second Sunday of Advent — Advent is primarily about the coming of God, and only in a secondary way about asking, seeking, waiting and longing. There is hope, because we are unconditionally loved, whatever may be our failures, our tepidity, or our secret despair. The word “Come” is a bearer of mystery.— Maria Boulding, The Coming of God.

Today’s Reflection: Lord, when we are anxious and confused, provide comfort and reassurance.
When we are idle and lazy, provide inspiration and energizing encouragement.
While we wait, ready our bodies, hearts, and minds to receive you.
As we tend to our Christian duties, do not delay.
Come, Lord, Jesus! Amen.
Come, Lord, Jesus! Amen. —Christopher Alt, SJ.

Today’s Reflection: Worth sharing – I was distant from God over the past week, mainly because of the desolation of my soul. Today, I let myself imagine that Jesus is still waiting for me in the same spot I had left Him. I went on a walkabout, and I returned to find He did not leave. — Social media post.
