A time to remember our commission

Not merely waiting for the Christ-child
for the second coming of Christ
Advent a season to prepare
a time to remember our commission
our purpose in life
we are to be doing, shining,
sharing the light of Christ
our life without meaning
if we are not working
preparing for the kingdom
for Christ’s return to earth
Advent is a season to ponder
a time to remember our commission
our purpose in life
