December 7, 2014: Second Sunday of Advent

In a world of troubles and difficulties, God speaks words of comfort to us.  He sends a Savior to make all things right, even in our own hearts.  He calls us to take leave of sin and embrace ways of righteousness, especially as the Day of the Lord nears when the Earth and Heavens are destroyed and replaced by new Heavens and Earth.

We take comfort in God's patience with us.  He wants us to live in righteousness, and calls us during this time before the End to repent, just as did John the Baptist.  We turn toward God, and make ready the way for Him to enter our hearts, even through the Holy Spirit, the baptism by fire.
