Advent Prayer: Between Hope and Fulfillment

Here’s an Advent prayer adapted from weekly Advent reflections by Mark Pierson.  It was posted on Facebook.

Advent Prayer

God in this season
suspended between hope and fulfillment,
let we never forget what you have done.
May we be overwhelmed by your mercy,
which flows in wave after wave.
May we be honest about the darkness within us,
and perceptive of the light around us.
May we make straight the path for the Lord,
that together we may see God’s glory revealed.
