December 24 - Anticipation

--Antiphon
The time has come for Mary to give birth to her firstborn Son.

--Isaiah 4:2
On that day, the branch of the Lord will luster and glory, and the fruit of the earth will be honor and splendor for the survivors of Israel.

--Reflection
Jesus is coming to my house tomorrow!! What do I still have to do to get my "house" in order and ready for his arrival?

--Intercessions
You came into the world heralding a new age foretold by the prophets, give your holy people the gift of renewal in every generation.
Let all see your glory!


You took on the weakness of our human condition, be light now for those who do not see, strength for those who waver and comfort for the troubled of heart.
Let all see your glory!

You were born into poverty and lowliness, look with favor on the poor and comfort them.
Let all see your glory!

By your birth bring joy to all peoples with the promise of unending life; give joy to the dying through the hope of heavenly birth.
Let all see your glory!

You came to earth to lead everyone into the kingdom, share you glory with all who have died.
Let all see your glory!

Our Father……
