MEDITATION FOR DEC 25

MEDITATION FOR December 25, 2024

Today is a celebration of your birth and

there is reason to celebrate if we can

for you are the key to the reality of

goodness in our lives and without you

we would be lost and abandoned. 

We need you in our lives and pray that

we can keep that thought foremost in our minds. 

Everything we do is by your grace. 

Without you nothing will be done

of any consequence in respect to our salvation. 

We have much to learn about your prophets and

the miracles you performed through them. 

Those teaching us have much to learn and

they can only base their knowledge on

what they have learned about you from

the notes we have on your brief period

of life on this earth.  We pray that you will

deepen our faith in you by the delivering of

your words and works by men who have

studied them and who remain in awe of you

and humble in the knowing that you are

the one and no one of us is as important as you. 

Our records look sad for the most part

in a world that we have cluttered with

our selfish needs to have more and more

at the expense of your loved ones who

must endure with less.  We need constant

reminders of why we are here and must be in prayer,

thanking you for the gift of life and asking for

forgiveness for our evil ways which caused

you to give up your life for us and our sins. 

You are the only gift that really matters this day.
