I know I'm a little late but I wanted to share a beautiful prayer I found that is attributed to St. Ambrose of Milan (whose Feast Day is today). It is very appropriate for the Advent Season:
Lord, teach me to seek you, and reveal yourself to me when I seek you. For I cannot seek you unless you first teach me, nor find you unless you first reveal yourself to me. Let me seek you in longing and long for you in seeking. Let me find you in love, and love you in finding.
St. Ambrose's story is quite interesting, you can visit http://www.catholic-forum.com/saints/sainta07.htm to read more about him (this was also where I found my prayer).
