St. Ambrose shares some wisdom on our need to prepare the way and open the door for Christ. “You see that when the Word of God knocks hardest on your door, it is when his hair is wet with the dew of the night. In fact, he chooses to visit those who are in tribulation and trial, lest one of them be overwhelmed by distress. So, his head is covered with dew, with drops, when his body is laboring hard. It is important to keep watch so that when the Bridegroom comes, he is not shut out. If you are asleep and your heart is not keeping watch, he will go away without knocking; but if your heart is alert for his coming, he knocks and asks for the door to be opened to him.” When life gets over-whelming and difficult and we find ourselves feeling a bit downhearted and miserable, these words can bring great comfort. We sometimes choose to remain stuck in our uncomforta-ble darkness and being stuck becomes our norm. In this time of self-focus our hearts are closed to the graces and life God desires to give us. Wrapped in the robe of mourn-ing and misery, we fail to see the mercy, justice, and love the Bridegroom wants to bring. If we take seriously the need to prepare the way for Christ and open our hearts in preparation for his visit, we can hear God’s gentle voice calling us deep within. It beckons us to seek out its source and discover the inner calm and peace that can prevail over the darkness of despair. Sometimes our darkness is so dark that it may seem unsurmountable. Trusting in the spiritual friends who journey with us, and God’s promise may bring a glimmer of light even when it is most difficult to keep our hearts’ doors open. Sometimes, the only light in the darkness is found in trusting the faith of others both past and present. We have to trust that God has already begun the accom-plishment of good work in us and that humanity is on an incredible journey to something wonderful and awesome. God is not done. When we open the doors of our hearts, straighten the paths of our lives, and prepare the way, Jesus can come with God’s simple gifts of peace, grace, and joy. Life throws a great deal at us. It is easy to get tired and confused. We have to train our hearts to keep watch, discern what is of value, and forge ahead. Not al-lowing ourselves to become so weighed down by things and brought out of focus is a tremendous goal to achieve this Advent season. God is knocking. Answer the door. You will see and understand life in ways you never thought possible before. ©LPi

En este Segundo Domingo de Adviento, Juan Bautista prepara el camino del Señor. Juan empe-zó a recorrer toda la región del río Jordán, predican-do un bautismo de conversión, para obtener el perdón de los pecados. Esto ya estaba escrito en el libro del profeta Isaías: “Oigan ese grito en el desierto: Preparen el camino del Señor, ende-recen sus senderos. Las quebradas serán rellena-das y los montes y cerros allanados. Lo torcido será enderezado, y serán suavizadas las aspere-zas de los caminos. Todo mortal entonces verá la salvación de Dios” (Lucas 3:3-6). El mensaje es-ta hecho como anillo al dedo para nuestra época, no está pasado de moda. ¿Cómo estás preparán-dote en este tiempo para recibir al Señor en tu ho-gar? De seguro hay mucho que enderezar después de esta pandemia que hemos vivido. Montañas exis-tentes de incomprensión e inseguridad que hay que allanar y hacer planas. Enderezar el camino jorobado de nuestra vida que llevamos a cuestas. ¿Cómo hacerlo? ¿En qué estoy fallando en mi fa-milia y en la sociedad? La figura del Bautista nos ayuda a recorrer dentro del corazón para llegar a una verdadera conversión. El Tiempo de Advien-to nos ayuda para luchar contra nuestros vicios y falsos orgullos que cargamos durante años. La conversión es completa y satisfactoria si humilde-mente reconocemos nuestros errores y defectos. Ese es el grito del Bautista – conversión - girar la mirada hacia Jesús que ya viene a salvarnos. Juan cumplió muy bien su misión de preparar el camino para el encuentro de las gentes con Jesús. ¿Tú como preparas el camino para que tu familia se encuentre con Dios está Navidad? Oremos con el Salmo125: “El Señor ha estado grande con nosotros, y estamos alegres”. ©LPi

WHY DO WE DO THAT? Question: With Christmas fast approaching, can you give me some practical tips to prepare myself and my family that will help us stay grounded in what this holiday is really about? With all the com-mercialism, it’s easy to stray. Answer: Happy times and events bring fond memories and a renewed sense of love and kinship with others. The anticipation is half the joy of the event itself. The coming of the Lord is that kind of event that people have been looking forward to for genera-tions with fervent hope and desire. It gave them strength and courage as they waited for the com-ing of the Lord. We know that Christmas is rushed. Sales begin in August and carols blare long before the season begins. Everyone laments the commercial as-pects of the season, but as Advent begins, do something to help you be more mindful of the Lord’s coming. Use and Advent wreath, or en-throne the Bible prominently, or read the readings from the Bible assigned to each day. Postpone the tree and decorations until closer to Christmas. Establish new family rituals, customs and prayers that help remind everyone that we are preparing to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Fasting, daily Mass, as special celebration of reconciliation, reaching out to those alienated from family or so-ciety, and visiting the homebound manifest the love of the Christ child and the Holy Family. Re-sist the temptation to rush the season. In his own time and in his own way, God will come. Our task is simply to be watchful and ready.

¿POR QUÉ HACEMOS ESO? Pregunta: Con la Navidad acercándose rápidamente, ¿puede darme algunos consejos prácticos para prepararme a mí y a mi familia que nos ayuden a mantener los pies en la tierra en lo que realmente se trata esta festividad? Con todo el comercialis-mo, es fácil desviarse. Respuesta: Los momentos y eventos felices traen buenos re-cuerdos y un renovado sentido de amor y paren-tesco con los demás. La anticipación es la mitad de la alegría del evento en sí. La venida del Señor es ese tipo de evento que la gente ha estado espe-rando durante generaciones con ferviente espe-ranza y deseo. Les dio fuerza y valor mientras es-peraban la venida del Señor. Sabemos que la Navidad está apurada. Las reba-jas comienzan en agosto y los villancicos suenan mucho antes de que comience la temporada. To-dos lamentan los aspectos comerciales de la tem-porada, pero cuando comience el Adviento, haga algo para ayudarlo a estar más atento a la venida del Señor. Use una corona de Adviento, o entroni-ce la Biblia de manera prominente, o lea las lec-turas de la Biblia asignadas a cada día. Posponga el árbol y las decoraciones hasta que se acerque la Navidad. Establezca nuevos rituales, costum-bres y oraciones familiares que ayuden a recor-dar a todos que nos estamos preparando para ce-lebrar el nacimiento de Jesús. El ayuno, la Misa diaria, como celebración especial de la reconci-liación, llegar a los alejados de la familia o la so-ciedad y visitar a los confinados en casa manifies-tan el amor del Niño Jesús y la Sagrada Familia. Resista la tentación de apresurar la temporada. En su propio tiempo y a su manera, Dios vendrá. Nuestra tarea es simplemente estar atento y listo.
