Third advent prayer

  1. John's disciples said to Jesus, "Are you' He who is to come'
    or do we look for another"?
    In reply Jesus said:"tell John what you hear and see: the blind
    recover their sight, cripples walk, lepers are cured, and the poor
    have good news preached to them.."
    Lk 3:10
    Oh Jesus, I rejoice at the signs that say you are near
    Your power is everywhere if you could see it.
    Yet my eyes often see only darkness and what has yet to be done
    I believe in you, yet when I look around evil seems so strong
    and goodness so weak. If you have come, why is there still
    so much suffering and why do the poor still despair?
    Where are your miracles today?

    Your grace, O lord, is more fruitful in my world than I imagine.
    I know your power is everywhere around me, if I could only see it.
    Show me today where the blind see and cripples walk.
    Make my vision sharper than it is.
