Scripture: Matthew 3:1–3
Reflection:
Advent is not noise, hurry, or sentimentality. It is a season of holy preparation—a time when God calls us to slow down, reflect, and make room in our hearts. Just as Israel waited centuries for the voice of a prophet, we too wait for the coming of our King. John the Baptist steps onto the stage as the “voice crying in the wilderness,” urging God’s people to prepare the way of the Lord.
Advent echoes that same call: prepare your heart. Not through busyness, but through quiet repentance, reflection, and expectation.
Prayer:
Lord, quiet my heart. Help me hear Your voice above the noise of this season. Prepare my heart to receive You anew. Amen.
Challenge:
Set aside 10 minutes today in silence—no phone, no distractions—and ask God, “What needs preparing in me?”
