Advent Begins

It's the first Sunday of Advent. The apocalyptic readings of the last month or so start to lead into the prophesies of the coming of the Messiah, as we are reminded that we are supposed to be getting ready for the Messiah to come again.

As usual, I am appalled to see what a state my life's gotten into since Easter. I need a better prayer life, a better work life, and just a more productive and honest life in general. I don't even know what I'm getting most of my relatives for Christmas, much less what I can do with my life. Time to put some thought into it.
