This last Sunday Bria taught on the longings of the soul that we discover in the Advent season.

During this season we recognize that the truth about our longings is revealed at His first coming, and the complete fulfillment of them comes with His second. So how do we live in the tension between the two?

We ought to live as those on whom light has dawned (Isaiah 9:2). We grieve darkness for what it is and we ask that God would shine His light again - that we might partner with the dawn.

We ought to live as citizens of the light. We wait with the Holy Spirit, who invites us to participate in His kingdom work here and now. We wait for his second coming by casting off every work of darkness and putting on the armor of light (Ephesians 6:13-18). We wait victoriously.

It is longing that Advent brings to the surface. When we let the light dawn and we see the truth about our longings - they are for Him. Let Him expose darkness for what it is that you might wait on Him in the light.
