Advent Week 2 - Tuesday December 7, 2021

Pray:

Psalm 39: 4-7

4 “Lord, let me know my end, and what is the measure of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is. 5 You have made my days a few handbreadths, and my lifetime is as nothing in your sight. Surely everyone stands as a mere breath. Selah 6 Surely everyone goes about like a shadow. Surely for nothing they are in turmoil; they heap up, and do not know who will gather.

7 “And now, O Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in you.

Ask:

How does remembering the brevity of your life add richness to Advent?
