Advent--a season of longing

To you O God, my soul in stillness waits, surely my hope is in you.

This was a beautiful song we sang at Mass and at the Advent Walk to begin this grace-filled season of Advent. I look to this season to create silence and quiet in the midst of lots of activity to empty myself and allow God to fill me with peace, hope, God's very self. I pray these weeks of Advent may prove fruitful and blessed.

To you O God, my soul in stillness waits.
