Dear Friends, On this second week of Advent, we continue to prepare for the Lord’s coming. Today, the church calls us to reflect on the good news of this season. Thus, we are to reflect on the reason of Christ’s coming, and on what we are expected to do this season.
Our readings focus on the nearness of the Lord’s coming and the need for repentance for the for-giveness of sins. So, one very important question today is, why is Christ coming? He is coming be-
cause he loves us. He is coming to save us. He is coming to make all things new. He has a mission, and that mis-sion is for us, and for our salvation.
Repentance and reconciliation are very important conditions for us to welcome Christ worthily. This is what the prophets Isaiah and John the Baptist, and the Apostle Peter mean by, “preparing a way for the Lord” and “living holy and saintly lives.” If we repent sincerely this season, then the salvation that Jesus brings will be ours. If we clean up ourselves properly, we need not be afraid of the Day of the Lord. Therefore, as we continue to wait and prepare, let us humbly pray with the psalmist: “O Lord, let us see your mercy, and give us your saving help.
