Prayer 2135: First Sunday in Advent



God of all Grace,
You are the source of all being.
You are the fount of every blessing
 and your mercy endures forever.

May we be ever watchful
to see the signs of your approach around us,
even in times of anxiety or fear.
Help us to lift our eyes
from the cares and concerns that trouble us,
and see your goodness in our lives.
Come, Lord Jesus,
as the Incarnate One,
as the Redeeming One,
as the Ever-Present One in our hearts.
Help us to be grateful for all that we have,
and set our sights on the Higher Ground that we have in You.

We thank You and bless You
for our breath, our life, our hope.
We ask that your radical love hover especially
over these beloveds whom we lift up in our prayers today.

Amen.
