Prayer For Advent

Lord of Lords,

We, like anxious children, keeping vigil 

wait with excitement and anticipation

of your coming.

We open our minds to the Truth Your Word

holds for us,

We open our hearts as an invitation to inscribe

Your teachings on our hearts as instruction for 

our lives,

We open our eyes to You so we can see each other

as You see us,

And we rejoice with outstretched arms for the salvation

You bring to the world!

Amen
