Titus 2:11-13 For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all, . . . awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, . . .
Prayerful Reflection
O Blessed Hope, come
We began this Advent journey in hope,
which has now been fulfilled by your coming.
Blessed be your name, Holy One.
You have released us
from the bondage of sin,
redeemed us from the depths of despair,
rescued us from the darkness of death.
On this day, we celebrate the unending gifts
of hope, peace, joy and love
you have generously given.
Send us forth in grateful response
to offer these gifts to the world.
Amen.
