May the blessing of
Advent hope fill your heart
when the darkness of fear
tries to enter in.
May the blessing of
Advent patience fill your mind
when the busyness of the
season overwhelms you.
May the blessing of
Advent promise fill your spirit
when questions of doubt sneak in.
May the blessing of
Advent dreams awaken your being
when you wonder what life
holds for you.
May you know that
Advent Hope, Patience, and Promise
are only glimpses of the fullness
of God’s dream
in you and for you.
