Devotions for Advent 2020: A Light in the Darkness

by Kevin O'Brien

The world could use some light right now. Advent is a time of preparation for the coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, the Light of the World. This year, choose to focus your thoughts and attention on Him during this often distracting time. Starting with Sunday, November 29, this newly updated edition is designed specifically for the year 2020. Each of the four weeks of Advent focuses on a specific hope, preparation, joy and love. Each day offers a Scripture passage and a short meditation to focus your heart and mind on the coming King.See through the eyes of the shepherds and Mary, Anna and Simeon. Reflect on the messages of the prophets and sing the songs of the psalmist. Hear from the Gospel writers and the leaders of the early church in Peter and Paul. And see them all with a view to the king who came, who continually comes and is coming again.Spend fifteen minutes a day this Advent season and you will be challenged, inspired and renewed by the love of God for his people. Whether Advent is a bit like a foreign language to you or is a part of your normal life, this short devotional will help to guide you as you seek the one of whom the angels sang “joy to the world, the Lord is come!”
