Christmas Eve

Lord,
On this cold morning, remind me of your warmth and love. Remind me of the only place that I am truly safe, the only place where I can find true hope. All good things come from you and you alone.
You gave the world the gift of a Savior, a gift we have rejected, time and time again. But the gift is still there; Mary had the child, and he grew into a man and showed us how to love and worship you. We fail in our attempts, but we know the light and we look to it, hoping that we will be able to steer our feet to walk that path. We know you and love you, even though we fail.
Remind us of our savior, Jesus Christ. Remind us that our hope is in him, that our life is in him. May we cherish and celebrate the gift of a Savior this and every day.
Amen.
