"Advent, this powerful liturgical season that we are beginning, invites us to pause in silence to understand a presence. It is an invitation to understand that the individual events of the day are hints that God is giving us signs of the attention he has for each one of us.”
-Pope Benedict XVI

Awakening our hibernating souls

I was listening to KVSS on my way into work this morning, and they were interviewing Mark Hart from LifeTeen International. He said that Advent is a season for our souls like winter is a season for nature. Paraphrasing (since I couldn't write while I was driving):

"Advent is an opportunity to think about where we've grown spiritually cold and dark...If you've been hibernating, it's time to wake up."
