Candlemas, Post Communion (Redub)


God of hope,
when Simeon and Anna met Jesus
they welcomed a Messiah beyond their dreams.
May, we who share a life together in your love,
be surprised as we find you
where and when we don't expect.
Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 8.65 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 20.03 years.

Here's the information on how this prayer is a redub.

The Candlemas (Presentation of Christ in the Temple) Collection of 5 prayers is here.

The project began Advent 2012.

If you want to use the prayers, an acknowledgement of myself as author and, if there's space, the link to my blog would be much appreciated.
