Christmas Prayer 2 (Day 339)
O Come, Emmanuel, and dwell with us forever! We awaken to the whispered voices of angels proclaiming the birth of our Savior and King. We are God's anointed, marked with Christ's love, and we bow our heads in worship and praise.
Let us carry that love, which is Jesus our Lord, into our hearts and into our world. Let us arise from our place at the throne of God and build a kingdom of compassion, peace, and plenty for all. May the love of Jesus fill our hearts until they overflow, and be a balm to all the world as it emerges from winter darkness. May we be a Spirit-filled people, inspired by the courage of all the saints.
May our prayers ascend like incense, and draw down the comfort of God upon those whom we now name.
Amen.
