Lk 21:25-28, 34-36 - Jesus said to his disciples: “There will be signs in the

sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay,

perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright

in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the

heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these signs begin to

happen, stand erect and

raise your heads because your redemption is at hand.

“Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap.

For that day will assault everyone who lives on the

face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that

you have the strength to escape the tribulations that

are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man.”

“Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing

and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a

trap.

The importance of the Advent season remains to focus on

the coming of our Lord. (Advent comes from the Latin

adventus, meaning 'coming.') The Catechism stresses the

two-fold meaning of this 'coming': 'When the Church

celebrates the liturgy of Advent each year, she makes

present this ancient expectancy of the Messiah, for by

sharing in the long preparation for the Savior's first

coming, the faithful renew their ardent desire for His

second coming' (No. 524).

Therefore, on one hand, the faithful reflect back and are encouraged to celebrate the anniversary of the

Lord's first coming into this world. We ponder again the great mystery of the incarnation when our Lord

humbled Himself, taking on our humanity, and entered our time and space to free us from sin. On the other

hand, we recall in the Creed that our Lord will come again to judge the living and the dead and that we must

be ready to meet Him.

A good, pious way to help us in our Advent preparation has been the use of the Advent wreath.

(Interestingly, the use of the Advent wreath was borrowed from the German Lutherans in the early 1500s.)

The wreath is a circle, which has no beginning or end: So

we call to mind how our lives, here and now, participate in

the eternity of God's plan of salvation and how we hope to

share eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven.

The wreath is made of fresh plant material, because Christ

came to give us new life through His passion, death, and

resurrection.

Three candles are purple, symbolizing penance,

preparation, and sacrifice; the pink candle symbolizes the

same but highlights the third Sunday of Advent, Gaudete

Sunday, when we rejoice because our preparation is now

half-way finished.

The light represents Christ, who entered this world to

scatter the

darkness of

evil and show us the way of righteousness. The progression of

lighting candles shows our increasing readiness to meet our

Lord.

Each family ought to have an Advent wreath, light it at

dinner time, and say the special prayers. This tradition will help

each family keep its focus on the true meaning of Christmas. In

all, during Advent we strive to fulfill the opening prayer for the

Mass of the First Sunday of Advent:

'Father in Heaven, ...increase our longing for Christ our Savior and give us the

strength to grow in love, that the dawn of His coming may find us rejoicing in

His presence and welcoming the light of His truth.'
