During the time between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day, prayer often loses the place of priority we place on it in the rest of the year. Our to-do lists bloom and we feel ever more the pinch of the shortness of time in the Advent and Christmas seasons. Families rush the Advent season to hasten in Christmas long before our calendars reach the 24th of December. Advent and Christmas, like the season of Lent, are profound moments in our Liturgical year where the first movement of our hearts should be toward our Lord, especially how we encounter Him through prayer.
