Third Day of Advent
O God,
Perhaps it seems easy to us to believe that Jesus came all those years ago and that he will come again sometime in the future.
Perhaps it is not so easy for us to believe that Jesus comes to us in this very moment, that he comes to us right here and right now.
Lord, we believe; help our unbelief.
As we move toward the season of celebrating the coming of Jesus to our world two millennia ago and as we move through these days when we anticipate his coming again someday, grant us the assurance that Jesus comes to us in every second that we live.
Help us to keep our eyes and our hearts open for him.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
Amen.
Definitely the present coming that is most difficult to stick with.
