The Advent season is about waiting for the miracle of the birth of the baby Jesus into the world. That nativity story is deceptively simple, though, for it holds a depth of meaning and symbolism about who we already are and can be when we realize that our hearts have been divinely fashioned as mangers - birthplaces - for the Holy One in our midst, birthplaces for the Infinite Love that Christ passionately invited the world to know. In grateful awe, we prepare for, await, and celebrate such a miracle with love that overflows in acts of joyous giving.
