Prayer 680

For the Images of Advent project, day 3, I chose this image for "Imagine." Imagine and see beauty in overlooked things.

Let us come before our God and Comforter, who nurses us and tends us in all our ways. Holy One, our hearts are bowls shaped by your hands: fill them with your spirit of love, truth, and compassion. 

Show us the light of your countenance, O Lover of Souls, for the times we feel we are stumbling in the dark. Drive far from us all the winter chill of fear or hardness of heart: gather us under your wing, O Lord. 

Bring us through the time of trial, O God, and strengthen our hearts for our journey today. Still our clamoring minds that we may hear You as You call us each by name, for we know that we are yours. 

Receive our offered prayers, O Savior, and bless and keep those we now name.

Amen.
