Last week, Susan gave a reflection interspersed with song at her parish entitled, ‘How Advent Saved My Christmas’. Through the miracle magic of modern portable recording equipment and the information superhighway, we are able to hear that talk today. It’s about 47 minutes, so grab a cup of coffee, put your feet up and enjoy.
Join us tomorrow and every day until December 26 for more reflections produced by great Catholic New Media personalities.

Beloved child, enter in this mystery
This blessed time as we wait for the Holy Son
Come inside of my immaculate heart
And wait with me, oh wait for Him to come!
Come feel my sigh of expectation
The spark of love, the moan of desire
As I wait now in labor
With a love that burns like fire
The nightime comes and darkness swallows
The fading light, the end of day
And yet His light envelopes me
In His ecstasy, His way
Prepare your hearts now for this moment
In quiet solitude and song
And let the tranquil peace of soul
Mark the passage of night to dawn
