Fourth Sunday of Advent
O God Who Comes,
Grant us your peace.
Grant us your peace that comes from knowing that you love us and that we love you;
grant us your peace that comes from knowing that you believe in us and that we believe in you;
grant us your peace that comes from knowing that you are always with us and that we are always with you.
But God, even as we rest in your peace, make our peace a restless peace.
Keep us restless in the knowledge that our peace cannot be complete as long as one other person does not know your peace;
keep us restless in the knowledge that our peace cannot be complete until your entire creation is at peace.
May we rest in your peace.
May we be restless in your peace.
Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus!
Amen.
