The Advent Fast has begun!


        Christians know God primarily as revealed in the person and the life of Jesus of Nazareth. According to the Orthodox faith, everything in the Church begins and ends with Jesus the Lord. The specific person of Jesus and the specific things he taught and lived by way of example, define the character and will of God as love, goodness, mercy, forgiveness, kindness, truthfulness, justice, compassion, joy, and gift-giving. It is the incarnate God the Son who speaks to us: “Come to me…and I will give you rest. Learn from me…and you will find rest for your souls” (Matthew 11:28-29). And again: “I am the vine and you are the branches… Abide in me…abide in my love…and you shall bear much fruit” (John 15:1-9).
            The heart of a sincere Orthodox Christian desires to choose the hard path of commitment over the easy (and rather boring?) path of convenience.  During the Advent Fast, we now have the God-given opportunity to escape the commercial nature of the "season" that drains our spiritual energy.  Though we may hesitate to admit it, we find it very challenging not to conform to the world around us.  But it is never impossible to choose our commitment to our Orthodox Christian way of life over what is merely convenient !
