It is traditional to say one of these each day leading to Christmas. For more information have a look at this site.
December 17
O Wisdom, proceeding from the mouth of the Most High,
Pervading and permeating all creation, mightily ordering all things:
Come and teach us the way of prudence.
December 18
O Adonai and ruler of the house of Israel,
Who appeared to Moses in the burning bush and gave him the Law on Sinai:
Come with an outstretched arm and redeem us.
December 19
O Root of Jesse, who stands for an ensign before the people,
Before whom kings are mute and to whom the nations will do homage:
Come quickly to deliver us.
December 20
O Key of David and scepter of the house of Israel,
You open and no one can close, You close and no one can open:
Come and rescue the prisoners who are in darkness and in the shadow of death.
December 21
O Dayspring, splendor of light everlasting:
Come and enlighten those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death.
December 22
O King of the nations,
The ruler they long for, the rornerstone uniting all people:
Come and save us all, whom You formed out of clay.
December 23
O Emmanuel, our King and our Lord,
The anointed for the nations and their Savior:
Come and save us, O Lord our God.
God bless (and Merry Christmas) - N

Long time no blog!
Greetings fellow Christians. I haven't posted for a while but my Bible studies continue, as does my battle against temptation. I ask you to join me in this prayer...
God Bless - N
Please Lord give me the strength to defeat my temptation.
And give me the ability to be a better Christian.
I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ - Amen
God Bless - N
