Advent Breath Prayer: Dec 10
“How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger who announces peace, who brings good news, who announces salvation, who says to Zion, ‘Your God reigns.’” - Isaiah 52:7
Inhale: “Bring”
Exhale: “Good news.”
Breathe in and breathe out God’s word throughout the day in short pauses.
Every day of life brings highs and lows. Think back on the past few days. Who has offered an action, a deed, a word of good news to you? Perhaps you received a letter, a phone call, a facebook tap of encouragement, or a genuine smile by a passerby. These actions might seem insignificant in the moment but they could be the feet of a messenger who brings a word of peace to you. Give thanks to God for the small ways good news of God’s peace greets you.
Dear God, thank you for the messengers of peace you send across our paths. Give me a heart of gratitude to receive good news in the ordinary stuff. Help me to be a messenger of peace to someone I meet today. Amen.
