An Advent of Inspiration: Day 19!

Christmas is almost here let us welcome it with happiness and cheer. Let us praise God for the marvelous gift of love He gave to us, Jesus Christ. 

Day 19: "There was no Room for them at the Inn!" -Luke 2:7 

The Nineteenth Day of Advent

Oh, Jesus, you hold the key 

that will unlock my constricted heart. 

It gives me great hope 

that Mary said yes to you and your plan. 

She was filled with the Spirit 

and put aside her own doubts.

I know you are ready to answer my prayers, 

ease my doubts and calm my fears. 

Sometimes I don't hear your messengers 

because they aren't what I expect. 

They aren't wearing wings or halos 

but are the people standing in front of me.

How many times have I not listened? 

How often have I balked at your messages 

and your messengers?

Fill me with the light of your Spirit 

and enter, in all your glory 

into my life. 

Let me rejoice!

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel 

Shall come to thee, O Israel!

Amen.

Ta, Ta for now!
