Some of us are already in rush – shopping, baking, writing cards, etc. But Advent is not a time of rush. It’s time of waiting! Time of reflection focusing on the miracle that happened twenty-one centuries ago in the poor manger kept in a poor stable somewhere in the David’s town of Bethlehem – the Incarnation, when God became a man. There are thousands of various resources for these special season around us – in the internet, libraries, relayed within families and communities.

There are resources how to bake excellent cake, how to make Christmas tree decorations, palette of Christmas cards is larger than our senses can catch. And there are spiritual resources, the most important ones in this time especially for Christians. It’s important because Advent is the time of waiting and time of preparation for the Incarnation. It the time we have to make our hearts ready to sing Gloria in Excelsis Deo!.

In this ocean of resources and offers here are some we would like to recommend you and encourage you to make your milestones on the road to miraculous manger.

ADVENT PRAYER

O God, most high
You send glad tidings to the lonely,
And did not hide your face from the poor.
Those who dwell in darkness you call into the light.

Take away our blindness,
Remove the hardness of our hearts,
And form us into a humble people,
That, at the advent of Your Son,

We may recognize Him in our midst
And find joy in His saving presence.
We ask this through Him whose coming is certain
Whose day draws near;
Your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ. AMEN
