This year I arrived at the craft store on Wednesday of the first week of Advent only to be told by the salesperson that I was \u201cone hour too late\u201d to buy the pre-packaged rose and violet tapers\u2014someone had just grabbed the last set. I could barely contain my frustration as my son Ben and I walked back and forth through the long aisles to find some white pillar candles and violet and rose ribbons to wrap them in. The hassle seemed to be sapping what little strength I had, and certainly all of the peace.<\/p>\n<p>In the same way, I have been hard-pressed to settle into a rhythm of prayer to \u201cprepare my soul\u201d for Christmas. The devotions seem to be something extra heaped on top of me at the end of the day; I struggle to keep my eyes open and focused on the prayer book. Despite my best efforts, my large family and a full-time job are taking all of my energy. The treasured time of silence and watchful waiting is eluding me.<\/p>\n<p>And so, what am I to do? It is too late to do my shopping in November, too late to begin again. Am I to remain stuck and frustrated for the rest of the season? Here, as is so often the case, the saints are a great help and consolation to me. They teach me a way forward.<\/p>\n<p>Take Saint John of the Cross, whose feast we celebrate on December 14. A 17th century Spanish priest and Doctor of the Church, John was a confessor and confidante of Saint Teresa of Avila. A spiritual poet of the highest order, he wrote his most famous poem, \u201cThe Dark Night,\u201d after he was abducted by his own disgruntled Carmelite brothers and imprisoned for six months. In a narrow, cold cell, separated from all earthly comforts, John\u2019s heart began to sing:<\/p>\n<p><em>On a dark night, Kindled in love with yearnings\u2014oh, happy chance!\u2014 I went forth without being observed, My house being now at rest. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In darkness and secure, By the secret ladder, disguised\u2014oh, happy chance!\u2014<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In darkness and in concealment, My house being now at rest. . . . <\/em><\/p>\n<p>The entire poem unfolds into an allegorical love story: the soul steals out to meet Christ, her lover, and, under the cover of darkness, she is embraced by him. The language is so deeply stirring that one might wonder how such things could be written by a half-freezing, half-starved celibate man. But, just so\u2014here in this desolate place, John discovers that one thing only is important: union with God.<\/p>\n<p>In another century, an ocean away, mother, convert and religious foundress Elizabeth Ann Seton, makes the same point. In the final years of her life, Elizabeth went through her own dark night. She who had endured the death of her husband and two beloved daughters, who had suffered poverty and the rejection of her family after her conversion to Catholicism, who struggled to lead a new religious community in the Maryland countryside, now began to feel the first touches of the tuberculosis that would eventually end her life. In a moment of undeniable spiritual aridity, her heart cried out:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cAlone on a rock this afternoon, surrounded by the most beautiful scenery, adoring and praising Him for His magnificence and glory, the heavy eye could find no delight. The soul cried out, \u2018O God! Give Yourself! What is all the rest!\u2019 A silent voice of love answered \u2018I am yours.\u2019\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Again, one thing alone is necessary\u2014to seek God, indeed to plead for his presence with all one\u2019s heart. Where John\u2019s plea is elegant poetry, Elizabeth\u2019s is all-American directness. But in the expression of both is the unmistakable prayer that God be all.<\/p>\n<p>And what is the source of the single mindedness of these saints? We have only to continue reading Elizabeth\u2019s account above to understand it: \u201cThen, dearest Lord, keep me as I am while I live; for this is true content\u2014to hope for nothing, to desire nothing, to expect nothing, to fear nothing.\u201d In the same way, John of the Cross speaks of \u201cthe nothing,\u201d that is the source of spiritual union. \u201cNow that I ask for nothing, I have all without asking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both saints point to the acknowledgement of our nothingness, a poverty of spirit, as the starting point. They teach us that dependence on God alone must be the basic condition of our lives.<\/p>\n<p>This helps me.<\/p>\n<p>I am struck by the fact that acknowledging nothingness is not something that I <em>do<\/em>, a new devotion or practice, but rather a fundamental attitude before my Creator. To \u201cdesire nothing, to expect nothing\u201d does not mean reducing or repressing our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vatican.va\/archive\/ccc_css\/archive\/catechism\/p3s1c1a5.htm\">natural God-given desire<\/a> for all that is good. It means to depend on God for everything. And, in this nothingness, I am not wasting time being scandalized by my own poverty, but simply offering it to him over and over again. My inability to cope, my lack of planning, my over-busy days\u2014the entire mess can be His.<\/p>\n<p>And so, in the spirit of John of the Cross and Elizabeth Ann Seton, I am coming before Him this Advent with nothing. And maybe, finally, this is what Advent is about.
