Stir up our hearts.

Last night I celebrated the second week of advent with Cousin and on Thursday I'll celebrate with a dear friend. The season continues to be one of great hope and anticipation. God is. Jesus came. The Holy Spirit is here among us. Jesus is coming back. So good.

O King of all nations,
Jesus Christ,
only joy of every heart,
come and save your people.

Stir up our hearts, O Lord, and prepare us for the coming of your only-begotten Son, that we may bring glory and praise to Him who lives and reigns with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, ever one God.
