Monday of the Fourth Week of Advent
December 23, 2019
Today, in Mercy, we pray:
O King of All Nations,
Cornerstone
holding us as One,
Come, save us.
Now, so close to
your Revelation,
we ask ourselves
if it is really darkest
just before the Dawn?
Our shadow seems
to have gotten
so badly in the way
of your Generous Light.
Despite your Breath
that bids us soar
in shared and
sacred tenderness,
we stubbornly return
to selfish clay.
Rekindle us, selfless King,
on this eve of eves.
As You prepare
to hide your Godhead
in our flesh
for sake total love,
change us to Love.
May your Mercy
incarnate in our hearts
in an Eternal Christmas .
Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!
