DAY 1
MORNING PRAYER
God of Love,
Grant us the gift of hope,
patience, and waiting,
in these days of Advent.
Help me to focus on your birth during this wonderful time of the year
so that I can let go of the
wounds and insecurities that I sometimes have.
Help me to live in your love,
as
we continue our journey towards Advent.
Amen
