Lord, who came into the world to comfort your people, be the consolation of the aged as they approach the time when you will call them home into your kingdom. May these years be especially rich for them as they draw ever closer to you. Come as a guiding vision to all those who are struggling every day just to survive. May they feel your hand upholding them and your love encouragng them not to despair. Direct the searching eyes of youth until they find and follow you. May they follow the path of service to their fellow humans, which you would guide them to pursue. May those in our land or in distant countries who are waiting for the hour of redemption be assured by your birth into our world, that you are with us always and hear their prayers and have them in your care. Thank you for your promise of comfort.
Amen.
