Spirit of the Lord, who abides with us and in us, give us wisdom to discern what we need to sustain us as we wait for your redemption, that we would not be extinguished before the end but have all we need to be strengthened until we see the fulfillment of your goodness, through Christ our Lord, who reigns in you before the Father in heaven. Amen.
‘When the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.’ – Matthew 25:3-4
