Reflect
Advent is a time to wait in hope for the birth of Jesus. It requires patience on our part—and therein lies the struggle for many.
Pray
Dear God,
my heart is open to your
arrival this season,
but the wait is a challenge.
Teach me to be patient.
Give me the quiet to meet you in prayer
and show me how to live in the moment—
to embrace this season of grace and hope.
Amen.
Act
Do you struggle with patience, especially during Advent? Offer this prayer as a way of meeting God halfway.
