We prepare this week by stepping up the longing. We move through this week by naming deeper and more specific desires.
Each morning this week, if even for that brief moment at the side of our beds, we want to light a second inner candle. We want to let it represent “a bit more hope.” Perhaps we can pause, breathe deeply and say, “Lord, I place my trust in you.”
The above reading is from Praying Advent, an online initiative of the Collaborative Ministry Office of Creighton University. There’s lots more to be found there — something for everyone.
