Dear Lord Jesus, You are indeed the Light of the world. John told the people to prepare for You when You were very near. As Christmas grows closer day by day, help us to be ready to welcome You now.
You always welcomed little children when You walked on this earth. Teach me to have a childlike trust in You. Help me to live in the knowledge that You will never abandon me.
As we celebrate Your birth, may we begin to see the world in the light of the understanding You give us. As You chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship You in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving.
Amen
Amen
