Let us all be filled with the spirit of your only Son;
Sent into this world as a symbol of peace and love,
So that we might have eternal life.
So that we might have eternal life.
Let us remember His humble birth in Bethlehem,
The angels that proclaimed his birth to the shepherds in the fields that holy night,
And those that had the faith to follow the star in the night sky that led to His manger bed.
May all those who gather here in His name to honor the celebration of His birth,
Hold His love and goodness in their hearts now and always.
Amen.
I wrote this Christmas prayer for my friend Bess. It's simple message is my gift to her this Christmas. These are the things that I hold dear in my heart this time of year. It's amazing to me when I see the miracles that God works everyday. It all started 2000 years ago in a stable in Bethlehem because there was no room at the inn. There was Mary young and pregnant, betrothed to Joseph a humble carpenter. She told him an unbelievable story of Gabriel, God's messenger, sent to tell her of what was to be. Another angel appeared to Joseph and confirmed her story. He had the faith to be true to her and to care for her, and when they went to register her time came to have her baby. What a night! Angles spoke to shepherds, a bright beautiful star appeared in the night sky, people came from all around to see the miracle of God on earth. For at least one night the world was at peace.
May we all find that same peace this Christmas season and hold it in our hearts all year long. Merry Christmas Bess. Peace.
