Advent Reflection - December 3, 2019
Scripture
Psalm 20: a Prayer for Victory
The Lord answer you in the day of trouble! The name of the God of Jacob protect you! May he send you help from the sanctuary, and give you support from Zion. May he remember all your offerings, and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices.
May he grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your plans. May we shout for joy over your victory, and in the name of our God set up our banners. May the Lord fulfill all your petitions.
Now I know that the Lord will help his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with mighty victories by his right hand. Some take pride in chariots, and some in horses, but our pride is in the name of the Lord our God. They will collapse and fall, but we shall rise and stand upright.
Give victory to the king, O Lord; answer us when we call.
Reflection
May We Be Seen : A Haiku May our dreams come true May our tears be collected May we rise as one
Prayer
God of Creation,
May we ask for what we need, be vulnerable with whom we can trust, and believe we are deserving of love. Amen.
