“Advent Qualities”
We may ask why the Advent Season? Your answer may vary from mine. Please know however we feel about Advent is OK. The spiritual view is preparation. Advent is a period of time to prepare our hearts to receive greater Faith, Peace, Love and Joy. Why? So we may accept readily the radiant light of the Christ consciousness, presence and power.
Unity stands apart from conventional religion. In that, Christ besides the historical Jesus Christ has great spiritual meaning and character. It is our higher Self, the God nature, image and likeness of the Divine in and as us. In this regard, opening to increased Faith, Peace, Love and Joy prepare us to understand the Radiant Christ Nature placed within our heart and entire body and expressive nature.
Therefore, by increasing in faith we open and expand in light and our Divinity has more room and acceptance to express and move through-in us and our life activities. We expand in Faith and we brighten with Christ qualities simultaneously. The same holds true for Peace. Peace is an easy Divine idea to associate with our inherent Christ Nature.
As we pray and open to know and feel peace and express peace in our conversations, quietness and varied activities we expand in peaceful living. Same hold true for Christ Love and Joy. The more we open and prepare our hearts by being love and compassion, we shine with the Christ light of love even more.
As we do, we easily take in and give out joy and happiness. Hence, we ready increase in Divine inherent Light and become generous in our exercising of Faith, Peacefulness, Love, Love-kindness and Joy. Amen.
