GOD'S INVOLVEMENT

The 3rd Sunday of Advent

PROVERBS 5:21 (MSG)
Mark well that GOD doesn’t miss a move you make;
he’s aware of every step you take.

LUKE 1:38 (CEV)
Mary said, “I am the Lord's servant! Let it happen as you have said.”

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Our assignment is to align ourselves with what God is doing; for he is deeply involved in all that happens in the world and in our lives.

PRAYER
God, your mothering care flows through the witness and heart of Mary. May I, like her, also profess, "Let it be with me according to your word." I want to learn from her today and to trust your stewardship of my life, that I may do your will by letting the life of Christ be born through me. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
