for Advent!
The word "advent" derives from the Latin word, "adventus," meaning "coming." During its earliest observances, Advent was a period of 40 days of repentance, fasting and prayer as new believers prepared for their baptisms. Today, we keep one eye on how we are living out our life in Christ and the other eye fixed on the clouds as we look for the coming of Jesus in power and majesty.
Have a blessed Advent, my kind friends.
