Prayer 1806: The Feast of the Epiphany


Lord Jesus Christ,
you reveal the light of God to all creation,
and draw hearts to worship God from all peoples:
accept the meditations of our hearts
as we rise and praise you this day.

May we each make manifest to others
the hope that is in the Name of the Lord
and the Love Incarnate that comes into the world
in your humble birth and life, O Christ.
May we embody your healing power
and seek to follow in your ways, O Savior, 
and faithfully testify to your wisdom and grace
at work in ourselves, and in the world around us.
Help us to shine with a holy light
and place our gifts at your feet, Beloved Jesus,
that we may carry your reconciling love within us
for the life of the world
and the restoration of peace and justice.

Breath of Heaven, breathe upon us;
fill us with the Holy Spirit
and make us the face of Christ for those we meet.
We ask your blessing, comfort and presence
to rest upon upon these beloveds
whom we remember before You today.

Amen.
