Advent, Day 15

Zephaniah 3:14-20; Isaiah 12:2-6; Philippians 4:4-7; Luke 3:7-18


God of All,
You call all your children to serve, each with different tasks before us.
But you also lay upon all of our hearts one mission:
To prepare the way of the Lord, motivated by love for you.
You call us to prepare our hearts
through prayer, worship, and study.
You call us to prepare those around us
by sharing your promise of grace and forgiveness.
You call us to prepare the world
by working for your justice and peace and caring for all of your creation.
You call us to prepare, for you are coming.
Open our hearts and minds today,
And fill us with anticipation as we prepare to welcome you,
Jesus Christ, our Savior. Amen.
