2nd Sunday of Advent (A)



Readings: Isaiah 11: 1-10; Romans 15: 4-9; Matthew 3: 1-12

Selected Passage: “In those days John the Baptist appeared, preaching in the desert of Judea (and) saying, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!" (Matthew 3: 1-2)

Meditation:  The reign of God is at hand. It finds home only in a repentant heart.  Change our old ways and bad habits!  Repentance is turning away from doing bad and begin doing good for others.  Advent is the season to come back to our senses and remember to go back home to the Father’s house.

After receiving the Baptism of Repentance, we make visible our commitment to new life by doing good for others, especially to people in needs. This way, we shall, truly, welcome the Lord as he comes into our lives.  www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
