If we are always waiting for the moment to pass, we are never ready for what blessings that might be right in front of us. 

Even in hard times, those that have walked before us endured what was right in front of them.

Healing and things we request from God is not because of magic being involved. Rather, it is always rooted in faith. Do you believe God can transform you? Without faith life can be gloomy and dark. Those with faith have inner peace and joyful expectations. 
The deeper the faith, the better eyes of faith we have to see God better in ourselves and others.

What kind of house am I? 
Am I the kind of house that is build solidly on rock? Or am I built on sand?

During this time of the pandemic, we have been battered with different things. 
During this season of advent, we are called to recover our vision of faith. To make sure our being, the truest temple of God is built on solid rock.

Sometimes we need to empty ourselves in order to be filled up. Especially in Advent. 

Sometimes God removes mountains from our lives, but sometimes they are put in our way to help us.

O good Cross, made beautiful by the body of the Lord: long have I desired you, ardently have I loved you, unceasingly have I sought you out and now you are ready for my eager soul. Receive me from among men and restore me to my Master, so that he who, by means of You, in dying redeemed me, may now receive me. Amen.

Advent is a time of returning and a time of penance as we wait and as we watch. Where is our focus directed? How do you use your spiritual gifts?

Gift of Wisdom: To judge and direct affairs according to divine knowledge functioning in normal everyday life and relating them to God.
Understanding: Penetrating insight into the higher truths necessary for our salvation. Aligned to the path of heaven.
Counsel: Being allowed to be directed by God, which is necessary for salvation.  Is not being a counselor. Let God form and mold you like clay, be willing to be formed. Sometimes it is painful process.
Fortitude: A firmness in mind in doing good and avoiding evil. Fortitude is what the martyrs had.
Knowledge: Ability to judge correctly about the matters of faith and right action as to never wander from the straight path of justice. We should all question our lives if all we are gaining is earthly knowledge.
Piety:  Worship and duty to God. Being a son or daughter to Christ.
Fear of God: God is God, and I am not Him. To understand that the greatest suffering is being separated from God. 

The above definitions are traditional definitions from Thomas Aquinas

Religion and faith are two different things. Faith arrives when we internalize religion. Faith sustains us every single day. Do you recognize God in your life everyday?

We are called to be vigilant and alert always. In times of dreary hearts and anxiousness we should put our hope in God always.
