On a closer look the words we were reading are from Paschasius Radbertus, a 9th Century Benedictine, no doubt reflecting on St. Cyril. I like this way of thinking about Advent “Consequently, we must always be on the lookout for Christ’s twofold coming, the one when he comes day after day to stir our consciences, and the other when we shall have to give an account of everything we have done. He comes to us now in order that his future coming may find us prepared.”
So maybe we ought to think of it not as twofold but rather as the threefold coming of Christ. He comes first as a child in a manger, he comes to us “day after day to stir our consciences,” and he is coming again to bring all things to himself. Make this Advent about seeing Him each day and let’s make our lives about seeing Him each day. Is he not asking us each day, “Did you not see me in prison, hungry, homeless, naked, and a stranger?”
