Lord Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us, thank you for filling us with your divine love.
Enable us to know your power at work in our lives so that we may love one another even when it hurts, knowing that we can love others only because you first loved us.
Let us abide in your love so that we may glorify you.
Prayer by Student Chaplains Kate Fredrikson '17 and Kevin Seaman '17, excerpted from the 2016 Advent Devotional.
