Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Father, 

Just as you sent John the Baptist to prepare the way for Jesus, clear a path in our hearts. Show us the distractions in our lives that keep us from focusing on you this Advent season. 

Lord, we await Your coming! As we prepare to celebrate the first Christmas––the first coming––we look toward the day where we will see you face to face. Give us minds to remember the ways in which you have already done great work in us, give us eyes to see how you are presently working in the world right now, and hearts that long for your return in the future .

Help us to live our lives constantly aware of your presence. Awaken our souls to the truth of your grace, and prepare us to joyfully receive our Lord Jesus Christ when he comes again in glory.

Amen
