Advent Prayer
By Henri Nouwen
Lord Jesus,
Master of both the light and the darkness,
Send your Holy Spirit upon our preparations for Christmas.
We who have so much to do seek quiet spaces
To hear your voice each day.
We who are anxious over many things
Look forward to your coming among us.
We who are blessed in so many ways
Long for the complete joy of your kingdom.
We whose hearts are heavy seek the joy of your presence.
We are your people, and walking in darkness, yet seeking the light.
To you we say,"Come Lord Jesus!"
Amen.
