PRAYER PAUSE

MANY DESIRED
TO SEE
Pause. Enter into the stillness of God
within.
Reading: “Many prophets and kings desired to
see what you see and never saw it, to hear what you hear and never heard it.” (Luke
10:21-24)
Reflection. Jesus announces the time is here that
many have longed for. The kingdom has
come. They look around and nothing looks any different. Where are the signs of
change, of the new era? We could look around today. Politicians and prophets
say things are different. But are they? And yet everything has changed. Now there
is real hope for those who have eyes and ears. Now there is nothing to stop us changing
everything – if we have the will. The only thing stopping us is our own dull
desire that everything stays as it is.
Prayer. Lord, may
we hear the Advent message. May we open our ears and hearts to receive it. Give
us the courage to act. Amen.
