Pause + Pray

Take Time to Be Quiet

Reflect

Too often we spend the season of Advent rushing, wrapping, planning, and budgeting. But we’re missing the point. This prayer can help us focus on what matters.


Pray

Dear God,
Advent should be a season of peace,
though my mind is burdened with what is
left to do.
Guide me to a place of quiet so that I
may focus my heart on the birth of Christ.
Help me to remember that all roads
lead to you.
Amen.


Act

Share this prayer with someone in need of a quiet moment. Often it is there where we can best hear the voice of God.
