Watch

On this second day of the Advent, the word is Watch.  Advent calls us to both an interior and an exterior watchfulness.  Internally, are we listening to God's still small voice
or is our soul being blown the wind grasping onto to whatever feels good.  Externally, are we watching for opportunities to serve?  Are we watching for those moments to love without exhausting ourselves?  

From the 21st Chapter of Luke: 34 “Be on guard so that your hearts are not weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of this life, and that day does not catch you unexpectedly, 35 like a trap. For it will come upon all who live on the face of the whole earth. 36 Be alert at all times, praying that you may have the strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

We are called to be alert and to pray, what is God putting on our hearts today?
