First Sunday of Advent
The Church Year begins today with Advent, the anticipation of the coming of the Christ. We remember the anticipation prior to the Incarnation and we ourselves are anticipating his coming in glory. The Gospel passage concerns itself with his second coming:
Jesus said to his disciples: “Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come. It is like a man traveling abroad. He leaves home and places his servants in charge, each with his own work, and orders the gatekeeper to be on the watch. Watch, therefore; you do not know when the Lord of the house is coming, whether in the evening, or at midnight,or at cockcrow, or in the morning. May he not come suddenly and find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to all: ‘Watch!’” (Mark 13:33-37)
And what is the work I am placed in charge of until the Lord of the house returns? Is it to earn my own living and provide for myself, giving proportionately to those in need? Also to treat the people in my life with respect because they are created in God's image? Worhip and pray? Is there anything else?
DDB for Anthon Berg Chocolates

From the breaking of the piece, to the color splash, this commercial was a joy to watch!.It was both stimulating and soothing to the eyes.
I like how they turn your attention at the beginning with the sounds of the chocolate being broken off, to the crackling bite, then zooming in to take your visual attention for a short and enjoyable journey. This commercial was well made and to the point, simply a delight.
