Advent Novena 2012 - A Prayerful Interlude Before Posting The Last Day

[AnneLine]

Dear PhatPhamily....

Saturday was a crazy day for me -- and I simply didn't have the time to work on the Novena, much as I had hoped to do so. So please forgive me for breaking the 'novena' chain.  I think our Lord & Lady (and hopefully you!) understand...

And the night before... I think I was too sad to work on it, given the trajedy in Connecticut.

 

What are we to do, when faced with something so... sad and inexplicable?


Following our Lady's example, I have 'kept in mind all these things, pondering them in [my] heart'.... and offer these as a bridge through the sadness so we can move forward into the joy of the last day of the novena and the joy of Gaudete Sunday......and the coming of the Little Prince of Peace.

If you are so inclined, you might want to light a virtual candle.... and pray for all involved... and we are ALL involved in this....

May Christ BE our Light, leading us forward.

And now.... time to prepare for the 'last' day of the Novena!  This time it really WILL be here in an hour or so!!!!

Taking a little longer than I had hoped to prepare the final 'Day'- and I need to get to Mass.

 

Will post the last day when I get back. 

 

Sorry this has ended up so oddly!  God knows what is best!
