1st Tuesday of Advent

Do you want to know Jesus more personally this Advent? Tell him your fears, your struggles, your worries, and your sins---even the ones you don't want to let go of. He can handle it. Most importantly, tell him that you want to love him more. You'll be surprised at how understanding and compasionate he can be. Then, when Christmas comes, you won't just be remebering the incarnation of the Son of God as a historical event. You'll be celebrating the renewal of your own heart by Jesus, who lovees you so much that he gave his life for you.
