A Prayer for Thursday, December 24, 2015

Christmas Eve

O God,

It is the eve of the celebration
of the birth of your Son Jesus.

Let it also be the eve of our renewed
reception of Jesus in our lives.

Let us awake tomorrow to a new found
awareness of the love, grace, mercy,
peace, and hope that Jesus brought
to Earth and that he brings to us.

Let us awake tomorrow to a new found
awareness of how his presence in us
empowers us to make his love, grace,
mercy, peace, and hope known in the world.

Jesus was born in the real world.

Help us to live out our experience
with him in that same real world.

Amen.
