The great truth of Advent, which is our cause for rejoicing, is that Jesus Comes! He wants to come into our lives, to offer us His love and forgiveness, to redeem us from our sins. He comes in the Holy Eucharist, He comes at our death (particular judgment), and He will come at the General Judgment. The Church gives us Advent at the start of the year so that we will prepare well: now and throughout the year. The one who truly believes Jesus comes will prepare himself well, and his preparation is in proportion to how sincerely he believes. How do we respond? With contrition for sin and a burning desire to love Jesus. And no one helps us prepare better than the Blessed Virgin Mary.
