    2nd Week of Advent - Wednesday

    CATEGORY: SESSIUNCULUM — Fr. John Zuhlsdorf @ 12:01 am

    Here is the Collect for Wednesday of the 2nd Week of Advent.

    COLLECT:
    Omnipotens Deus, qui nos praecipis
    iter Christo Domino praeparare,
    concede propitius, ut nullis infirmitatibus fatigemur,
    qui caelestis medici consolantem praesentiam sustinemus.

    This prayer is ancient, from Rotulus 6 published with the Veronese Sacramentary.

    Notice the image of Christ as medicus, physician.  

    English translation?

    I think maybe some of you might take a crack at it today.
