TODAY’S WORD…

Light is sown for the righteous,

and joy for the upright in heart.

Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous,

and give thanks to His Holy Name!

– Psalm 97:11-12

REFLECTION…

To men and women of good will, Jesus’ birth is indeed good news! Suddenly there is light where before there was darkness; joy to push desperation aside; hope where, perhaps, there was none.

PRAYER…

Jesus, Emmanuel,

King of Kings, Lord of Lords,

thank You for the joy and peace You bring into my heart!

My soul magnifies You, O Lord,

and my spirit rejoices in You, my God, my Saviour.

Thank You for the great joy that only You bring,

and for changing darkness into light.

I praise and thank You, Jesus,

for You have truly made me glad!
