Advent is a time for preparing, for making space (though as Tsh Oxenrieder says in her Advent book “Shadow and Light”, to be still, to make space is an almost subversive act our culture’s December).

I do pray that you might find some space today to breathe, to be still, to listen and to ask yourself the question, what might it mean for my heart to prepare room for the Christchild?

Much love and every blessing as you pray today

PS: Here we pray with Isaiah 40:3-5. The whole chapter is worth your Advent meditation time!

Contemplative at Home offers guided meditative prayer – space to slow down and listen to the truth that is being born out of God’s love for you today – drawing on Ignatian spirituality and at times, Lectio Divina.
