Prayers for Advent (Week 3)

Taken from: Advent Devotions to Take You Deeper: A Season of Faith (Laurie Hopkins, 2018, page 34).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, Giver of light, knowledge and faith itself, we come before you and thank you for this opportunity to see Your direction and guidance in this Advent season. Once again we acknowledge that the sparkle of Christmas has dulled and we wish to regain our joy and faith in the Christmas season.  Awaken our desire to see and hear more of what you have for us while not relying on our knowledge or our ability to take care of things ourselves. Keep us from being blinded by the darkness and help us to choose the light, even the very Light of Your Son, Jesus Christ, in whom we pray.  Amen and Amen and Amen.
