Roman Catholic Prayer: First Week of Advent - Monday Prayer

Opening Prayer:
Lord our God, help us to prepare for the coming of Christ your Son.

May he find us waiting, eager in joyful prayer.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Closing Prayer:
Loving God, I sense that all is your creation and everything, and all of us, are being drawn back toward your loving heart.

Help me to be a person of peace, To speak about it in an uneasy world, And to live it among the people you have put into my life every day.

Light in me a desire to prepare for your coming to stand in the darkness, waiting, eager and filled with joy.

Amen .
