Thursday after the First Sunday in Advent 2012

Romans 13:11-14 (NIV)

11 And do this, understanding the present time: The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. 12 The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. 13 Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy. 14 Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.

Heavenly Father, we praise You that the night is nearly over and the day is almost here. Guide us by the Holy Spirit to clothe ourselves in Jesus, to put on the armor of light and behave decently so we are ready for the great day when Jesus comes again in glory. In His name. Amen.
