Advent, like Sabbath, is a contemplative time. The kind of contemplative, prayerful time that prepares us for what is to come in life. John calls the people to prepare a way for the Lord to enter their lives. Sabbath is a weekly time for preparing ourselves for the coming week of our lives. What is the most important piece of your life in the coming year, for which you want to be sure to be prepared? Maybe it is unknown — how do we prepare for that?
