Did you know? Tonight marks the first Sunday of advent. The first candle represents HOPE. Keep the flame of Hope burning in your life, even if it's only a tiny sputtering flame right now. Let your people gather round to protect that precious flame. I imagine Hope as a fierce superhero, not a wimpy sentiment on a greeting card. What does Hope look like to you? Advent is my favorite tradition of the year and with all that 2020 has served up, counting down the days until Christmas by remembering all that has been done for us feels even more necessary than usual. To focus on the Hope we can have by being reminded that we are not alone, that we are loved, and that we are held is a beautiful thing. Here's to holding on to Hope as we close out this year.
