  Prayer from “The Advent Project” Day 21

  Gentle me,

  Holy One,

  into an unclenched moment,

  a deep breath,

  a letting go

  of heavy expectancies,

  of shriveling anxieties,

  of dead certainties,

  that, softened by the silence,

  surrounded by the light,

  and open to the mystery.

  I may be found by wholeness,

  upheld by the unfathomable,

  entranced by the simple,

  and filled with the joy

  that is You.
