Fourth Sunday of Advent
Watchword for the week — God has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly. Luke 1:52
Sunday, December 22, 2024 — Micah 5:2-5a; Luke 1:46b-55
Hebrews 10:5-10; Luke 1:39-45,(46-55)
For you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O Lord, from my youth. Psalm 71:5
In hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what one already sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. Romans 8:24-25
Jesus, we can become so discouraged when our faith does not produce results that our eyes can see. Change our perspective, Lord, to trust in your work always. Amen.
