Day 10: Thy Kingdom Come – Silence | St Edwards Church, Eggbuckland

DAILY NOVENA – SILENCE

LOOK…and be curious.

WAIT… with prayerful expectation.

Come Holy Spirit: Thy Kingdom Come.

READ… the text with an open mind.

I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I hope; my soul waits for the Lord more than those who watch for the morning, more than those who watch for the morning. (Psalm 130:5-6)

LISTEN… for a word with a willing heart.

RESPOND… with prayer and action.

Oh God of the new day, Your Son Jesus knew what it meant to watch and wait through the dark silence of the longest night. Teach us how to wait with heaven’s indrawn breath on tiptoe with anticipation, until all of our being reaches towards you, all our desire is for you, and all our onward movement is for your Kingdom coming.
Amen.

THOUGHT

Stop.

Your head. Your hands. Your feet.
Breathe in deeply.
Hold it.
Breathe out.
Take 10 breaths.
And listen to the quiet. The noise of the silence.
Allow God to fill the space.
Now what?

PRAY FOR 5

Listen to what God might have to say for your five.
