Christ -
You came into the world through a body prepared for You.
A body that came to do God’s will. A body that abolished burnt offerings and sin offerings. A body that was written of in the scroll of the book. A body that established a new order.
A body through which we have been sanctified by Your offering up of it - once for all.
In the name of the incarnated One, we pray.
Amen.
(The Fourth Sunday of Advent is 12/19.)
