Have you recently offered your friendship to an acquaintance? Did you make that offer on a house? Are you taking the next step offering a lifetime commitment to a partner or a child you will birth, adopt or foster? If you have done these or similar things, you know that there is this moment when all your hopes and fears mingle. A moment where anything and everything and nothing is possible. Advent is that moment. We wait and hope for everything, the promised hope of Christ, as we make an offering of our time, attention, and whole selves.
