The New Testament gospel narratives describe a variety of responses to the arrival of the Lord Jesus Christ. The shepherds and the wise men had the appropriate responses of awe, worship, and reverence. The Pharisees and scribes respond with suspicion and resentment, completely inappropriate for the glorious occasion. Children ran to him immediately, implicitly trusting him. Demons squirmed to get away from him as one whose judgment was authoritative, just, and final. The proud tried to justify themselves; the humble wanted him to stay and to teach. We have the annual opportunity to liturgically and ascetically rehearse our response to the arrival of the Lord in the season of Advent. It is a time of repentance and remedy for whatever part of us has been more like a Pharisee than a wise man, more like a demon than a child. Many who diligently work for the Kingdom of God in the Continuing Anglican Church have contributed meditations to this devotional. The meditations contained in this devotional are meant to aid readers in their preparation for the great Feast of the Incarnation, the feast of the arrival of the Messiah. Their works follow the passages appointed in the 1928 Book of Common Prayer lectionary (1945 edition) for Morning and Evening Offices and are meant to enhance your rule of life for the next weeks as you, along with the Church, rehearse your appropriate response to his advent. When we all finally sing together “the Lord is come,” may our careful Advent fast turn to a carefree feast of “Joy to the world” indeed.
