Wednesday of the Third Week of Advent
December 18, 2019
Today, in Mercy, we pray:
O, Adonai,
we reach for your outstretched arm.
How we need to lean on You,
to be upheld by You,
to be embraced by You,
Compassionate Lord, who
leads us through a life
that can be unbearable
alone.
We pray, with longing hearts,
that You uplift all the fallen –
whether into pain, or loss,
confusion, or the sad distress
we inflict upon ourselves
and one another.
Adonai, Beautiful One,
set a fire before us,
as You did for Moses.
Lead the way for us
with Flame of Love
and Light of Faith
into your outstretched Mercy.
Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!
