Advent Prayer: Enkindle our Hope
This Advent prayer reflects the deep longings of our hearts and of our world for the light that can dispel the darkness and lead us to peace.
Emmanuel,
Our world waits in darkness longing for Your light.
In the midst of darkness, enkindle our hope.
As we long for lasting peace in the midst of war,
Be with us.
As we long for families to be reunited, Be with us.
As we long for enemies to be reconciled, Be with us.
As we long for cures and healings, Be with us.
As we long for decent jobs and economic security,
Be with us.
As we long for love and community, Be with us.
Fulfill the deepest longings of your people and
Dispel the darkness in our hearts
and in our world.
Let your Word ignite the hope the world needs
to bring to life your love and justice.
Amen.
