Advent 2011

This is the first Sunday of Advent.
Just three days from Thanksgiving,
Just two days from Black Friday.

The day to turn our thoughts from goods to gifts,
Gifts of love not commerce.
Jesus was God's gift to us.
We celebrate with anticipation
The day of his birth.
What will we give this Advent season?
Time to those who are lonely,
Love to our neighbors,
Those that surround us every day.
Acceptance to those who do not share our beliefs.
Polytheist.
Monotheist
Atheist.
To ourselves, The gift of understanding,
Understanding That our relationship with God 
Is all that matters.
