Are you there God it’s me...

It’s a great day to be alive because, with you, all things are possible. Thank you for watching over me as I slept and delivering my safely into another day of life, health, and strength.

Thank you for giving purpose to my days. Help me to embrace the anticipation of Advent and put my mind, heart, body, and soul into rejoicing in you and the coming Christmas season.

Bless those who are victims of violence and crime, dear Father. Comfort and strengthen them with your presence. Transform them from victims into survivors that are more than conquerors.

Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, and heart has not imagined what you have prepared for those who love you, Lord. I can’t wait. It is in Jesus’ name and for his sake I pray.

Amen
