Advent word - abide

Sometimes - and it's particularly difficult at this time of year - all we need to do is just 'be', abide or rest in God's presence. Not doing. Just being.

God’s invitation for us to abide in God as God abides in us is not an invitation to settle down and get comfortable. It is a call to mission, a summons to fruitfulness. We are meant to share the fruits of the divine life with others.

-Br. David Vryhof
