Come, Lord Jesus!
Sweet Babe, You came from the Father to take on our human nature,
and set free what was bound in us by sin.
O come again to us today and help us recognize your mercy and tender love!
I am in awe of Your great power and grace.
From some place deep in my soul,
I hear You calling me by name
announcing the soon arrival of the Ever-Coming-One
and I prepare, with a joyful soul, for Your appearing.
Amidst the hustle and bustle of this season,
help me to slow my heart and listen
to the beating of Your love.
Grant me the gift of hope, patience and waiting in these Advent days
because I want the focus of my waiting to be on You.
I want to praise and glorify You with my life.
Help me live my gratitude to You in anticipation and rejoicing!
Come Lord - come!

I love this season and I thank you for posting about the real Reason for the Season; Jesus! We wouldn't be celebrating at all if not for His coming the first time. Have a Blessed week, dear friend.
