BE PREPARED
Be prepared. It’s that simple. As this Advent season opens before us, the Lord Jesus summons us to
stand ready for his coming. At this time of year much of our attention is focused on being prepared for the
details that accompany the holiday season. We purchase gifts; we decorate our homes, inside and out; we
prepare foods that we eat only during the holidays; we write and send Christmas cards; we attend holiday
concerts; we prepare either to welcome family and friends into our homes or arrange for visits to their homes.
We really can’t escape the details that make up the season. Perhaps this Advent is a time to attend to all
those details with a different spin. As we prepare to celebrate the feast of Christmas, why not be deliberate
about acknowledging the presence of the Lord as we go about these tasks? The Lord often comes to us in
wonderfully surprising ways. Let us be prepared. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

TIME OF PREPARATION
This life is the time of our preparation for our
future state. Our souls will continue for ever what we
make them in this world. —John Tillotson, Archbishop of Canterbury
ESTAR PREPARADO
Debes estar preparado. Es así de simple. Al comenzar este tiempo de Adviento, el Señor Jesús nos llama a estar
preparados para su venida. En esta época del año, gran parte de nuestra atención se centra en estar preparados para los
detalles que acompañan las fiestas. Compramos regalos; decoramos nuestro hogar por fuera y por dentro; preparamos
comidas especiales para esta época; escribimos y enviamos tarjetas de Navidad; asistimos a conciertos navideños; nos
preparamos para recibir a los familiares y amigos en nuestro hogar o para visitarlos en sus hogares. No podemos ignorar
los detalles que forman parte de este tiempo. Quizás este Adviento sea un tiempo para prestar atención a todos esos
detalles con un enfoque diferente. Mientras nos preparamos para celebrar la fiesta de Navidad, ¿qué tal si reconocemos
plenamente la presencia del Señor mientras realizamos estas tareas? El Señor muchas veces viene a nosotros de formas
maravillosamente sorprendentes. Estemos preparados.
