The Advent season is all about preparing our hearts for Jesus—not just for Christmas, but for every day of our lives. The season of Advent might end with Christmas, but the prayer and preparations are meant to last a lifetime.
Through radical generosity—with acts of kindness, thoughtfulness, prayer, and love—we’ve opened our hearts to those around us, and ultimately to Christ. We've allowed Him room to work in us and through us.

Now, take a moment to recognize the radical generosity with which our Lord is loving you. There are no adequate words to describe it, nothing we could do to deserve it, and it has no limits or conditions.

Prayer for Generosity
Eternal Word, only begotten Son of God,
Teach me true generosity.
Teach me to serve you as you deserve.
To give without counting the cost,
To fight heedless of wounds,
To labor without seeking rest,
To sacrifice myself without thought of any reward
Save the knowledge that I have done your will.
Amen.

Save the knowledge that I have done your will.
Amen.
