“We were hoping that he would be the one.”
 
Dear Savior, with thankful hearts we come to you and with praise for you never leaving us to wander alone in our journey of faith, especially when doubt enters our minds. Help us to recognize your presence in our life, especially through all the blessings that we have received from your bountiful love. Never let us doubt that YOU ARE THE ONE, but let our hearts be burned with love of you and the Good News. May you remain with us all the time and guide us to recognize the mission that you have called us to do, and have the courage to proclaim the Good News to all peoples. Amen.
