Clearing the Path
Devotional
So, beloved, before opening the door to Jesus, we must clear the path of anything that blocks Him. Sin, distractions, and worldly priorities can clutter our hearts and make it hard for us to truly welcome Him. Advent is a time to reflect, repent, and remove anything that hinders His presence in our lives.
