IN DRASTIC DAYS - PRAY GREAT THINGS!

Advent 2

ADVENT 2 – December 7, 2008

Advent means coming.

We are preparing for the full coming of God’s kingdom:

Jesus said, “I am the light of the world;

the one who follows me will not walk in darkness but have the light of life.”

We light these candles as a sign of the coming light of Christ. (light two candles)

 

The people who walked in darkness


have seen a great light;


those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness,


on them has light shined.

—Isaiah 9:2,

 

 And I will lead the blind


in a way that they do not know,


in paths that they have not known


I will guide them.


I will turn the darkness before them into light,

the rough places into level ground.


These are the things I do,


and I do not forsake them.

—Isaiah 42:16,

 

Come, Lord Jesus, our light and our salvation.

Let us walk in the light of the Lord.
