December 14 – Unburden

--Antiphon
From heaven he comes, the Lord and Ruler; in his hand are honor and royal authority.

--Isaiah 10:24a, 27
Thus says the Lord, the GOD of hosts:
O my people, who dwell in Zion, do not fear. On that day, the burden shall be taken from your shoulder, and the yoke shattered from your neck.

--Reflection
Lord and Ruler; Fear of the Lord; My yoke is sweet.
How did I honor the Lord’s royal authority this day?

--Intercessions
Lord Jesus Christ, our God, Savior of all, come swiftly and save me.
Draw near to me, Lord

Lord, by your coming into this world, free me from the sin of the world.
Draw near to me, Lord

You came from the Father, show me the path that leads to him.
Draw near to me, Lord

You were conceived by the Holy Spirit, by your word renew the same Spirit in my heart.
Draw near to me, Lord

Our Father...
