SIA Fourth Thursday of Advent




Today's Advent theme for the Fourth Thursday of Advent to ponder is:

The world’s true light, the Lord, comes with power and might.


So how might we create a Spirituality in Action (SIA) for today from this theme?

My suggestions are as follows:

  • Spend some time contemplating the rejection Mary and Joseph faced when they were not received in the inn.  
  • Reflect on those who have rejected you in the past and forgive them with God's grace today.
  • Pray that the light of Christ will shine through the darkness and hope will given to all.
  • Prepare for Christ's birth by receiving the sacrament of Reconciliation and allowing the Lord to come to you with power and might with His graces.
  • Sit in darkness for a few moments and then light a candle. Allow that light to fill you and the peace to invade your spirit. Pray to Jesus- the light of the world.
