Advent, Day 11

Psalm 126; Isaiah 35:3-7; Luke 7:18-30

God who spoke the world into being,
I am out of words.
I have used up all of my energy to create.
You created for six days, nonstop,
your creative energy overflowing.
I spent all day shaping words,
composing liturgy,
preparing to preach.
And now I have nothing left to say,
no more creative energy to expend.
Give me rest, O Lord.
Lift me up in your strong hands.
Breathe your Spirit into me again.
Refill my soul with your Living Water.
Pour out your grace, Creating God,
and renew my heart. Amen.
