Once again, the seasons are changing. The leaves on the trees are growing colorful and the flowers that once where so lovely have become brown. The longest Season of the Church’s Year is drawing towards its end, with the Feast of the Faithful Departed, we look to the contemplation and the end of all things.
But the Church year continues on, and doesn't end there, next we will look forward to the glories of the Lord’s Second Coming. As we contemplate this, we will enter Advent, the Season during which we consider the Lord’s First Coming in the flesh and look for a deeper understanding of His Second Coming in our daily lives as well as at the end of time.
Time marches on, and as a tired world complains of Christmas shopping, let us remember, how and why we travel this road with Christ at all.
