"ADVENTures" - Reflection Series of Rev. Fr. Bobby R. Titco for the Season of Advent (Reflection # 2 and # 3)

ADVENTures 2

Advent begins in the desert. So does Lent, right? No wonder because both blessed seasons should heighten our thirst for God.

IS OUR LIFE A TRUE LONGING FOR JESUS?




ADVENTures 3

Advent is never a waste of time. It teaches us to wait and prepare for the RIGHT TIME! Advent puts time in its proper perspective and us where we should be - not there but here. Keep Advent! Refuse going with the rising tide that rushes into Christmas at the expense of the Advent Season. Remind the world the value of waiting for the RIGHT TIME. Teach the young the wisdom of waiting and preparing well. He who hurries flirts with danger. He who rushes things courts an epic fail.

WASTE YOUR TIME WITH AND FOR GOD. He deserves it from you more than anyone else...always!

- from my homily on the 1st Sunday of Advent (CRUMBS: "Wasting Time", 1 December 2013)
