A Prayer for Friday, December 27, 2013

Third Day of Christmas

O God,

We thank you that you are always there; help us always to keep our eyes on you.

When it is dark all around us, help us to keep our eyes focused on you because in the dark you are still so close to us that we can see you if we will but look.

When it is light all around us, help us to keep our eyes focused on you because in the light we are easily distracted by everything that we can see.

When it is both light and dark all around us, help us to keep our eyes focused on you because in the shadows lurk dangers and blessings that we will need your help to avoid, to accept, and to appropriate.

We thank you that you are always there; help us always to keep our eyes on you.

Amen.
