Hello and welcome to this Advent Meditation.
Begin to ground yourself in God's love and center yourself in faith.
Now breathe as you become more rooted in love and guided by faith.
Through the eyes of your heart envision an evergreen Advent wreath.
A beautiful circle with no beginning or end.
A symbol of the eternity of God.
In your mind and in your heart sense the aroma from the evergreen wreath.
Let the scent be a reminder of continuous life.
Breathe into life and on the exhale release your faith.
Let's do that one more time as you breathe in,
Breathe into life.
And on the exhale release your faith.
In your heart notice the pine cones that decorate the Advent wreath.
A symbol of life and resurrection.
As you breathe in and out.
See the holly leaves and the berries adorning the Advent wreath.
Reminders of the crown of thorns and the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
Breathe.
Now imagine the Advent wreath around your own heart.
See light radiating from your heart,
From your being.
Allow that circle to remind you of God's faithfulness and his love.
Breathe.
As you breathe,
Let your mind,
Your body,
And your spirit be filled with the light of Christ.
As you continue to breathe,
Be filled to the full blessings.
