Saturday, December 10 — Psalm 141:5–10
2 Kings 9; Acts 2:29–47
The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. Jeremiah 23:5
Those who went ahead and those who followed were shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the coming kingdom of our ancestor David! Hosanna in the highest heaven!” Mark 11:9–10
Divine Creator, hear our hosannas for your incarnation amongst your creation who shows us perfect grace and love. Leave us not in our feeble and imperfect efforts to follow your will, but lead us toward divine justice, love, and grace. Amen.
