Faithfulness
Faithfulness is staying consistent until the end. Even though we're unfaithful, God is always faithful. He has declared us to be holy, and by the Spirit's power is perfecting us. Faithfulness for us is living in that power, rather than trying to do it on our own.

In a world increasingly divided and hopeless, even something as simple as respectful disagreement seems impossible. But the prophets who taught Israel how to long for the birth of the Messiah made bold promises: weapons formed into gardening tools; wolves and sheep living in harmony; deserts blooming. Such promises seem impossible – like pure imaginative fiction. But God’s promises aren’t fiction. They’re a future God is bringing into existence. Jesus birth proves God is with us, that God is working. We can have purified imaginations, see the world as it will be, and begin to work for that world now. What does it mean to be a people of Advent?
