This past week I asked you to consider where you see yourself on your spiritual journey. I hope you have given this the honesty your faith life deserves. I have one more question for you to consider as we prepare our hearts for the Advent season. If you could ask God to share one of His gifts with you, what would you ask for? What is missing in your heart? The Christ child is coming. He is God's gift to the world, but He also comes bearing gifts to share with all of us. What is your heart's desire? What are you dreaming of?
Do yourself a favor and spend some time praying about this with God. If you want to grow spiritually this Advent season, you have to know where you are, and what do you feel is lacking for you to grow closer to Christ. The angels are beckoning you to come see the Christ child, make whatever preparations are necessary now, so that you can move forward.
