On this 7th day of the new year and Epiphany Sunday, I recall with gratitude the lighting of advent wreath candles…the celebrating of Christ’s birth…and the Three Wisemen following a bright believable star mile after mile to welcome and worship Christ, the newborn King.
And so I share with you the following prayer for the year ahead:
Gracious Lord Jesus,
There’s a hope that comes from being grateful for
God‘s strength and consolation.
There’s a joy that comes from rejoicing in the hope of
God‘s unexpected invitations.
There’s a peace that comes from hoping against hope in
God’s precious promises.
There’s a love that comes from seeking peace with God,
and letting go of all the rest.
There’s a freedom that comes from welcoming a new year…
…trusting that the light of Christ’s hope, joy, peace, and love
will guide us each new day. ~Amen and amen!
