Advent Moment: Short Reflection Tuesday 16th December #advent
Dear friends, welcome to today's Advent Moment - our Advent Daily Reflection for Tuesday December 16th on Matthew 21:28-32 by Veronica Conlon.
Once more Jesus challenges the Pharisees who were seen as men who taught one thing and did something different themselves. Jesus told them,
‘The tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.’ In this reading we are asked to examine our lives and how we are living. Are we too much like the Pharisees? Are we calling ourselves Christian but not living a Gospel-led life?
Advent gives us the opportunity to answer these questions truthfully in the light of the hope which Christmas brings.
A prayer of hope by Joyce Rupp
God of hope, come! Enter into this heart of mine which often loses itself in self, missing the message of your encouragement because I am so entangled in the web of my own whirl of life. Enable me not to lose sight of the power of your presence or the truth of your consolation.
