Advent Moment: Short Reflection for Thursday 18th December #advent #prayer
Good morning and welcome to today’s Advent Moment reflection with the Oblate Family on Thursday December 18th by Veronica Conlon.
Jeremiah prophesied the birth of Jesus: ‘he shall reign as king…..and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.’ He was also offering words of hope to the Israelites that they will be brought out of exodus to live in their own land.
There is always room for hope. To maintain hope in our world can be difficult in the face of wars, flood, famine, displacement, abuse, dishonesty - the list goes on. The message of Christmas reassures us that God is always with us with comfort and support.
A prayer of hope by Joyce Rupp:
God of hope, come! Enter into every human heart that cries out for a glimpse of your love, for a sign of your welcoming presence, for a taste of your happiness. Be the one who calms the restless and gentles the ache of the human journey.
Amen.
Thank you for joining us this morning.
